Why not create a rule based inside the user's account? Not an OOF, but an actual rule. You create your template message, let it fire off, and put an exemption in for auto-responder type messages (so you don't start a ping pong match).
You need to keep the account/mailbox up for a while to allow your system to archive, right?

I first setup the custom DSN for internal/external: Then the Transport Rule: But when I send a message, it doesn't send the enhanced DSN, even though it references the code 5.7.225: Am I missing a step or misunderstanding this? It's the first time I've tried doing this, so hoping for a little guidance.

Of course as soon as I hit send I see there is an "-internal" flag. Going to set the Internal parameter to $false and confirm if it starts working.

I was using the below link as a guide, but does this apply to external recipients as well? Or only internal senders? https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123506%28v=exchg.141%29.aspx?f =255 <https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb123506%28v=exchg.141%29.aspx? f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396> &MSPPError=-2147217396 I setup a custom DSN code and noticed it is marked as 'Internal', so wasn't sure if that's just a naming convention or if it actually means it is used only for internal communication (as the example in the above link is internal staff communication). We have policies to delete user mailboxes upon termination as we have an archiving solution that maintains compliance for regulator/discoverable timelines. We are not allowed to just set an Out of Office for the two weeks, so I'm curious how others may handle such a scenario? Thanks.
