Sorry for posting this to the list, but I have no other way of
contacting Steven without buying him something.

Steven, please disable your obnoxious auto-responder. If you wish to
avoid being CC'd on messages to the exim list, the correct way to do so
was pointed out quite clearly by Tony last week[0].

IMO, this is just as bad as, if not worse than, a challenge-response
system, previously discussed ad-nauseum on this list at [1], and in
particular, Nigel's position at [2] is quite instructive.
