Everybody who posts to the list gets those, since the originator is in the posted message. I setup a filter that puts all messages with a subject containing "Out of Office AutoReply: [SI-LIST]" and similar ones (in German etc.) into the trash. That way, you get rid of most of them. I wouldn't use a dummy reply-to address, since a lot of people (like me right now) are using the reply all button to send a message to you and the list (or they reply to you in private). If you put in a dummy address, you won't get those and the sender gets a bounce warning.
