RT 2.0.8 _should not_ be responding to mail that comes
in with a 
	precedence: bulk 
	
header. Oh. I see. remedy is responding from a different address than the 
address that RT has the requestor address set to, so it's forwarding the
mail on to the requestor, since it came from a different address.... Ugh.

Options include using the sub CanonicalizeAddress in the config file to
make remedy's replies appear to come from the address it's sending from,
clobbering the remedy admin or hacking Action/Notify to not send out mail
in case of Precedence: Bulk.
