In a standard configuration the auto-reply does have the ticket number and if you send an answer back, OTRS is recognizing this number and therefor the answer is added to the existing ticket as an additional article. You could try to use another mechanism to identify an incoming email as follow-up by, which does search in the email references. Go to the OTRS Sysconfig and search for "references". You will be guided to Ticket -> Core::PostMaster and then to PostmasterFollowUpSearchInReferences or you can also try to use PostmasterFollowUpSearchInRaw.
