Typical symptoms:
When attempting to post a message to the list, an error email is returned.
Example, for OUT OF TOWN:
Your message posting was rejected because:
> Subject: header contains: "OUT OF TOWN"
This text is usually only included by automated email programs, such as
"vacation" programs. For this reason, Lyris ListManager does not accept messages
which contain this text, because it is highly likely that they are
automated messages, and not appropriate for a mailing list.
If you are receiving this message, it means that you accidentally set off
this safeguard.
Please resubmit your email message, without including this "trigger text".
