Whichever way you chose to implement your autoresponder, make sure you avoid mail loops: [...]
Oh yes. Mail loops will make you very unpopular, in debt or cut off.
Please realise that you will always have some risk of "collateral damage" with autoresponses to faked From lines and you may not realise it until your mailserver gets blacklisted by some of the more trigger-happy groups. I strongly suggest using a "semi-automatic responder" if you can find one. I tend to use scripts, but maybe someone has seen a nice "send form reply" GUI?
Hope that helps,
