Rejecting a message containing an X-Auto-Response-Suppress is not only
pointless, but it violates the RFCs, which permit any sort of X-* header.

Rejecting communication with Microsoft Exchange is an interesting
position to take and I sympathise on a philosophical level, but it's
tilting at windmills.  Completely impractical if you actually rely on
email for business communication.
