That doesn't help much, because then we all still get private
vacation messages. Please kick these people off the list.
The web interface for Mailman allows subscribers to re-enable their
account to receive messages when deliveries bounce too often. As
such an account might become "disabled" without notice. In the
subscriber's management web-page, a message could indicate that a
reason for messages being disabled may also include use of auto-
replies. Not sending to such an account responding with auto-
responses takes care of the problem. Such auto responses will appear
as duplicate messages and should be rather easy to automatically
detect. Disabling the account in this manner should be painless,
where of course a subscriber would then need to notice a lack of
traffic. This lack of traffic should prompt them to check their
account status, and click the enable radio button.
