We're delivering a lot of mail, something like 160.000 per month, and sometimes, users are "Out of office" for vacation.
When we're in vacation periods, we receive tons of mail saying "I'm in vacation"... and this is annoying :).
I assume this is a common issue you have to deal with, this is why I'm asking that:

But some headers lead to be seen as spammers by some anti-spam mechanisms.
I performed some tests by playing with these different headers. I only kept Precedence: bulk and Auto-Submitted: auto-generated because the other had not the targeted effect.
