I wonder about people subscribing their main personal or business email address to mailing lists.

Don’t get personal, it never reflects particularly well. Many UIs don’t allow users of an email system to configure a 
selective auto-reply, so you don’t know whether the person didn’t think about it at all or was prevented from applying 
an appropriate solution due to technical limitations.

Also, speaking about technical limitations - which mailserver in the world does send one auto-reply PER MESSAGE to the 
same sender? I haven’t seen this in ages, most seem to be sending only once or at worst once every day or so.
