So....
Suppose I configure my email to send a "Thanks, we have received your
email, we will reply shortly in office hours.". Whats the Holy Headers
so even poorly configured servers don't cause a AutoReply Storm?
Googling, I found "Precedence", "X-Auto-Response-Suppress",..? For
something like this, normally I would scan lots of opensource projects
in www.google.com/codesearch (so I can learn from the projects with
a large number of hours in production) , but seems down at the
moment.
Any device or process that uses information from the infinitely
forgeable email headers is a process or device that can be subverted.
