Problems guys...

Emails don't actually "come" from *@lists.php.net they are sent to
*@lists.php.net and then sent like it was an email from the sender to
x subscriber...

Really you should be suggesting that the subjects be used in the
event/filter things.

Autoresponders DO have their uses (business people, as long as they
aren't using their business account for lists) to ones that are, sign
up for a free hotmail/yahoo/gmail/* webmail account and get php list
stuff sent there instead (there are many people on this list with free
gmail invites if you still need them).  That or ask your network
admin/postmaster/yourself (if your that lucky) to setup another
account for you
