It seems to me that an automated solution to this problem would leave
itself open to abuse.  A moderated system would have to be monitored
by someone, and that would seem to be far too much of a chore.

You'll probably find that people with the appropriate access will
unsubscribe or suspend accounts that send them OoO messages anyway,
without further prompting from other subscribers.

Perhaps your proposed auto-unsubscribe feature should be reserved for
people who insist upon sending HTML emails and/or lazily top-posting
their followups. :-)
