Description

One of our (Plan.io) uses an email server to forward messages to a Redmine instance which inserts Auto-Submitted: auto-forwarded headers to the forwarded emails. Those emails are then rejected because of source:/trunk/app/models/mail_handler.rb@12937#L69.

Putting the fact aside that this header is only part of an IETF draft and not of an RFC, and that even according to that draft it shouldn't be there, this header causes the forwarded emails to be reject. We propose changing the Regex to only match the undesirable values defined in RFC3834, i.e. /^auto-(replied|generated)/.
