In a perfect world (is there such a thing?), OOO messages are sent with
a priority of "junk" (the responsibility is that of the email provider)
and the mailing list distributor sees the "junk" designation and
doesn't forward to the list.

roku should implement the latter; as stated above, the initial "junk"
designation is something each of us should make sure our email
providers provide.

I go away a lot, and am on lots of mailing lists, and only once in a
blue moon do I get a message saying that my OOO message has spammed a
list. ***@virginia.edu can often give hints about the details
of implementing all this stuff. Or just google a bit.

Getting upset and advocating tossing a well-intentioned list member off
a list in the midst of jillions of messages offering to cure our
apparently-common anatomical deficiencies seems misdirected to me.

I apoligize sincerely for not unsubscribing from this list before
leaving... I honestly thought I had unsubscribed from all of my lists
before setting up the auto-reply, I just forgot this one. I don't
use Outlook, it was from a web client, and I didn't realize it would
send to the same sender repeatedly.
