My gut response to (b) is always "who in their right mind would set up a rule for an OOF" , but I have seen it many times , even from people on this list.

All, In my experience, there are two ways to set up an OOO reply. (a) Use the 'Out of Office Assistant' - Tools > Out of Office Assistant. This will only send one reply per instance of the OOO Assistant per person e-mailing. If you turn it off, then on again, you'll get another message from the OOO person. (b) Use the Rules Wizard - THIS IS DANGEROUS. You can use the rules wizard to set up an out of office like reply, but it doesn't go through the filter that ensures people only get one... thus if you use this and you're on a list (like this), then that's how mail loops happen!!!
