Summary: Make password mailing RFC 3834 compliant

Initial Comment:
RFC 3834 specifies that messages generated
automatically by periodic automatic jobs should contain
an Auto-Submitted header with a 'auto-generated' value;
a 1-line patch does this for the cron'ed month
membership reminder.

This helps avoid loops and potential "sorcerers
apprentice mode" when hitting well mannered vaction
programs that recognize RFC 3834 headers.  There is
probably more work to do in mailman related to this
RFC, as well.
