      and just how is an algorithm supposed to detect that 
      <jeff-kell () utc edu> is a single human and not a list?

Because *I* set the out-of-office notification for my email
address[es].  If I'm not in the recipient list, do not respond.  This is
a "per user" knob we are talking about here, so it knows darn well what
address[es] are me.
