I don't use an auto-responder for communication as it can make 
communication quite complicated.  It would take some time to figure 
out where some binding contract might negatively impact me.  I don't 
do that at my location.  I am open to be convinced why it would be 
worthwhile to do that for some other location.

Bad Common Practice.
