Sure @zogstrip can have a look. It’s usually a wildly misconfigured mail client. ---

Since that email has no header indicating it was auto-generated, that’s unfortunately the best I can do [https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/ca4c939e9a2d6c202ab84841d255f00570f02f45](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/ca4c939e9a2d6c202ab84841d255f00570f02f45) ---

I don’t think it would hurt to add ```http X-Auto-Response-Suppress: All ``` to the headers of outgoing mail. Github and zendesk both seem to do that. ---

We’d rather take pull request **with tests**. Anyway, I pushed the fix. Thanks for suggesting that 👍 [https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/b08ab829b80794edb9fdb987d394c84a4ba3417e](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/b08ab829b80794edb9fdb987d394c84a4ba3417e) ---
