  49 To quote RFC 1459 (emphasis added):
  50
  51 The difference between NOTICE and PRIVMSG is
  52 that automatic replies _MUST_NEVER_ be sent
  53 in response to a NOTICE message.
  54
  55 This is not to say that Services are not
  56 compliant with the RFC.  Quite the opposite,
  57 infact.  Services sends the notices so that
  58 the other end does _NOT_ auto-reply.
  59
  60 As Thomas pointed out: if the client choses
  61 to ignore, this then it is the client that is
  62 at fault, not services.
