That's easily dealt with. Have the auto-reply trigger only on messages whose subject consists of *only* the word "unsubscribe". That way a subject like "Tried instructions, still can't unsubscribe" or even "Re: unsubscribe" (if they reply to the auto-response) would go through to the list -- business as usual. Even this strict rule would make a real difference to the background-noise level, I think. > Don't respond to this comment with an assertion that people should > just learn to read. Yes, they should.
