Heh. Try the redhat list, where folks invoke an "out-of-office"
message, which responds to *every* *single* *post*.
But no, there's only two or three folks whose email wants the
receipts, and I'm assuming that thay just don't understand what's
happening, and I was just trying to make them aware of it.
I once had a message filter for OOo lists that deleted out-of-office
messages immediately to the dust bin. At one time, there were many.
(Don't get me started on out-of-office messages. I am completely anti.)
As for the return receipts, I believe it's more than two or three folks.
I seem to get as many as 10 per week off of discuss and users. They are
a completely unnecessary annoyance. I propose that those who use them on
OOo lists be given a single warning followed by a lifetime ban for a
second offense. On the other hand, we could *all* acknowledge the return
receipt requests and add a follow-up message informing the sender of the
nuisance value.
I figure a few hundred of each might have the desired effect.
