but for someone posting to the list for the first time? Yet another

Not only was it my first post to the qmail list, but today was the first time I've heard of Q-Mail. I figured since I heard about it, i'd take over the list and force my opinion down everyone else's throat.

What? No, no, I wasn't calling you a first-time poster. Don't get offended; I recognize your credentials here. I was saying that if someone was posting to the list for the first time (i.e. had just found qmail, had read DJB's webpage, and thus found the qmail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx mailing list), he would likely be overwhelmed by the autoresponses, and would probably simply delete them all rather than poke through and discover that one of them is directing him to another mailing list.
