I'm on another list, where emails are set up to Reply-To the list,
and we *never* see any auto-reply, virus warnings, could-not-deliver,
or any other spurious auto-generated mails.  And it's been that way
for years, so I doubt the listadmin is coming up with new filters for
each new objectionable email.  I'll get in touch with the listadmin
and ask how he does it.
