He isn't using software appropiate as a vacation responder.

It is responding to the wrong address. Delivery status messages (such as
vacation messages) should go to the envelope sender address, not addresses
in the message headers.

The responder has replied to messages that didn't explicitly list his
email address in the recipient headers (as well as having several other
features indicating they were list messages rather than messages specifically
for him).

I also received several notifications from his bot over a couple of hours.
Normally vacation bots don't send notices more than about once every two weeks.
