My forum is set up to send a reply to an email back to the forum (and the original sender gets a copy of that email - which is a mod from normal Nabble).
If a user sets up an Out of Office Automatic responder, it creates havoc with the list (because the reply goes back to the list - which then sends the out of office message to the list, which then sends another one... and continues indefinitely).
I've done some research and the problem seems to be that Nabble doesn't set the header precedence tag in the email to indicate the email is from a mailing list:
precedence: bulk(Source:

Setting this would allow autoresponders to recognize the message came from a mailing list and not send out the Out of Office automatic reply.
Can this be added?
By the way, it looks like there are a number of headers that should be set for mailing lists that are not being set - which is probably why Nabble emails typically end up in the SPAM. Is it possible to see what the set_headers_for macro includes?
Thanks,
Coleen
