There are some very poorly written auto-responders out there and
nothing you do will stop them "working".  The best you can do is
keep your end in order:

    * Ensure you remain silent in all expected cases (ala vacation)
    * Get some statistical safeguard in-place (e.g. rate limiting)

Then try to deal with the offenders as best you can:

    * contact postmaster@
    * unsubscribe them

Yours sincerely,
