Unfortunately it's not quite that simple - I use Outlook and have no control
over whether OOO responses go to the outside world. It might be different
with later versions, but in our case the only control over this is in
Exchange. There is a setting in the Internet Mail Connector called "disable
out of office replies to the Internet" - it ought to be set, but as with
many settings in Microsoft products, it has an inappropriate default and
needs to be changed.
