Various Chinese subscribers to the list feel a need to use an 
auto-responder to cheerfully confirm receipt of your e-mail and are 
using a tool, probably supplied by Sina, that is too brain-dead to not 
send responses to mailing list mail.

I'm at two of them right now.

Jingzhou Sheng <jzsf at vip.sina.com> says:  I received your e-mail.  Thank 
you.
Tao Brother Team <taogely at sina.com> says:  E-mail has been received.  
Keep an eye on us for incentives, etc.

Both translations horribly loose with aid from Google Translate, but you 
should get the gist of what's happening.  :-)
