Same here I was just under the (apparently mistaken)impression that when you tell Outlook (2007) to not send OOFs to people outside your domain that's what it did.

OOO notices! (OT) I'm sure I'm one of the guilty party. Exchange 2003 had a registry hack that was supposed to minimize occurrences of OOO's going to mailing lists, but I believe that has gone away with 2007. Exchange 2007 does support separating the handling of OOO's between internal and external senders, but I turn both on. I need people outside of my organization (vendors, members of the public, etc.) to know I'm OOO just as much as I need people within my organization to know it.

DREGER [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, December 29, 2008 1:03 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Aaaiiiyyyeeeeee!!! OOO notices! (OT) I normally get a few OOOs in response to a post... but _thirteen_ just now?! Hint: If a message is addressed to a list (not to oneself), from a list server, et cetera, an OOO response might not be appropriate. And telling random people that you'll be out of state for two months is unwise from a security perspective.
