Summary0014800: Mantis should use "Precedence: bulk" headers for all mails

TagsNo tags attached.

Since 1.2.9 we are sending 'Auto-Submitted:auto-generated' 0013491
In version 1.2.12 we will send also 'X-Auto-Response-Suppress: All' 0014192

RFC 3834 does not recommend the use of the precedence header
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3834

Do you think I can set your issue to resolved?

Thank you for the fast reply!
I have seen several scripts that responds in dependence of the old header. Probably this scripts are buggy in this point. But it should not cause problems to add this extra header.
So I would see this as nice-to-have.

Unfortunately this is not true, for example

If we introduce this feature we have also to introduce a customization option $g_send_email_bulk_header which can be set to ON or OFF, with default setting to OFF.
