Problems guys...
Emails don't actually "come" from *@lists.php.net they are sent to

Really you should be suggesting that the subjects be used in the
event/filter things.
On that note - why is it that vacation autoreplies get through to this
list, but if you dare to speak the dreaded o f f - t o p i c or [ O - T
] keywords your mail doesn't get through?
its a mad world. :-)
I don't use autoresponders - If I ever go away, I either:
a, take a laptop and check for urgent stuff.
b, send important clients/colleagues an email saying when I'll be back -
which takes roughly the same time as setting up the autoresponder and has
the added bonus that you don't have to remember to turn off the
auto-responder
when you get back ;-)
Assuming you have this luxury. A bigger question is, how often are 'we'
(e.g. techies) in positions where we're away for so long, and so
immediately available to clients - but those clients don't know our
schedule? If I'm so 'in bed' with a client that they expect
instantaneous turnaround, I would just warn them directly - maybe my
experiences are unique. I just don't "service" a lot of people at a
time - I would think anyone who does either keeps communication open or
has others servicing them also.
good point, I indeed have the luxury of having a limited no. of (relatively
important) clients, this makes things easy.
having said that I'd love a gmail invite - I wanna dig into their
madhatter
javascript used in the clientside interface and learn a few tricks. so
if anyone has a spare ...?
Martin delivered the goods! many thanks to him, and anyone else who would
have sent one (if Martin hadn't gotten there first :-) )
rgds,

Done.
