And we intend to keep it that way by not having to pore through useless
automated trash postings caused by some "non geek"(?) having the
attention span of a gnat and forgetting to account for things like these
lists in his stupid vacation (or whatever) automated replies.

Alternately, we could avoid posting about such stuff until the
responsible list person is able to handle it. But where's the fun in not
picking on some hapless idiot?

I think people who use auto responders for their normal email account should get an additional email account, for the mailing lists they subscribe to, and NEVER use an auto responder on the email account for their mailing lists.  This happens frequently, on this mailing list and on others.
