Wow, 5 exclamations points.  Now that's emphasis!  ;-)

I set the gentleman's account not to receive mail and asked him to look
into it. 

Many people make the mistake of including the ML on their "out of office"
auto-replies.  The ones you see on the list are only those the regex
filter doesn't catch.  Our friend made that mistake while also being the
victim of a particularly -- um, "stupid" would seem to be a right word --
auto-responder.  

I only hope this episode will serve as a reminder to a few others.  Sorry
if it sounds like a lectuire.
