Grep for RT-DetectedAutoGenerated in RT code. It's used in two places. Nearby
you will find how RT detects generated emails. The right thing to do
is to change
the form to send email that doesn't look like generated. Everything
else sounds like
playing with fire. If you expect (auto)reply to an email then it
shouldn't be marked
as autogenerated or with headers that are used to avoid auro-replies.
