What we need is an RFC that specifies a particular header be used for
out of office type replies, and then we need mail clients to implement
that RFC when sending an automated response.

Then the mailing list can simply filter such messages based upon the
header and send it to /dev/null rather than send them to the list.

X-Auto-Response: whatever

That sounds good to me.
Maybe two headers ..

X-Auto-Response-Start: start date
X-Auto-Response-End: end date
