Forgot to add: moderation is important. Over on the redhalt general list,
every so often a dozen or two of us will complain when someone sets their
email to an out-of-office bounce, and we have days or weeks of the damn
things in response to almost every post, but the RH moderator doesn't pay
much attention to it. We've had some where it looked like someone had left
that when they left the job, and it took *weeks* of complaints before the
moderator paid attention and dropped them.
