When I received the 1800 messages dear Karen, and bless he soul because I am sure she had no idea of the havoc she was about the wreck when she kicked in the forwarding reply feature on her email, my first thought was that someone was trying deliberately to tie up my email system. Just imagine, for example, what those 1800 messages would have cost you in time if each of them had a long attachment file.
I am certain that this was not delibrate, rather the result of modern e-mail clients that are very complex and can do things you don't realize they are doing. I am sure plenty of "vacation" messages went to others than this list.
However, its a courtesy and wise precaution to either change to vactaion status on lists that allow it or temporarily unsubscribe from those which do not.
I wonder if Karen will come back to a mailbox filled with her own vacation messages? Hi, Karen...
