OK, we have all these smart programming types here, why don't you change
the listserver to check for the string 'out of office' in the subject
and delete them?  Might be a dumb idea, but maybe its so simple nobody
else thought of it =)

Personally I might institute a "one strike and your out" rule.

It's difficult to configure some clients not to send them to specific
people (then again it's difficult to configure some clients to do
anything... we're on Notes r5 at the office).  Some companies require
them (although I don't see any compelling why you would have list mail
sent to a business address either).

But dammit it's easy to configure any client I've seen to only send ONE
copy of the OOO message to each person!  ;^)

One OOO message is an annoyance and we get to pick on you, two and yer
gone.
(At least that's what I'd do.)
