The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

["Hart, Brian R." <address@concealed>]

Looking at the headers for some of the out of office replies that  
we've received I don't see this in the detailed header for the  
message.  Is it possible to do the same thing but match with the  
subject instead?  Thanks!
