[OT] Out-of-Office Autoresponders and Mailing Lists Don't Mix

Sorry for the offtopic post, but I've noticed three separate instances
of people on three different Python-related mailing lists using
"out-of-office" e-mail autoresponders while still receiving messages
from the list.

All of these lists are now run by Mailman, which has a convenient
option for disabling delivery for a time.  Please use it if you also
use an e-mail autoresponder.
