Not sure if I remember this correctly, but autoresponse e-mails should
have/contain a header with something like "Precedence: bulk".
I am not sure what it is between bulk|junk|list, but given that, you can
check for the existence of that header in your MTA or procmail rule and stop
that mail from getting to RT.

My RT usage knowledge is quite rusty after over 1 year not using it, so
you'll excuse me. I am just catching up. There might be other elegant ways
than this.
