I ran into the odd issue that an "out of office" auto-reply got caught as "Spam". Rightfully so, but the issue is that I can't release it through the GUI. Releasing it through the nightly report does work, fortunately.

The error when trying to release the message is "The sender address is empty", and I think the routine is in "baruwa/messages/tasks.py".

The problem with a lot of auto-replies is that the envelope "From" is empty, but the "From:" header is valid. I realize that you usually should not release messages like that, but sometimes you have to :)

I don't know if that could be handled with a "force-release" checkbox, or a second "are you really reallly really sure" dialog?
