 It would be refreshing if someone stepped forward and said This is my problem.
 I will try to fix it.

Thank you for a bit of light in the darkness.

BTW, it appears to me that Microsoft engineers its
products for demonstrators, rather than for users.

David,

Why in god's name would any email program worth 2 cents
not have this feature?

 David,
 
 Thanks for the step-by-step instructions.  I'm curious, 
 though - the usual heuristic for most vacation 
 auto-responders has been to 
 not send responses to any message which didn't include the 
 recipient's address in the to or cc header field.  Is there a way 
 to configure Exchange to use that heuristic?
 
 Keith

 At this time, there is no way to configure Exchange to do that.  Most of
 our customer feedback has been that our current configuration scheme,
 which allows per-domain configuration, meets our customers' needs.  

 Based on recent customer input (including this thread's input), we are
 currently evaluating adding that feature.  I can't promise when it will
 make it into the product, but I do agree that it is a good thing to do.

j0rge,

But, that might filter some Out of Office AutoReply messages
that are intended for me.

A more general solution would be to look for header fields beginning
X- which contains certain words.  Microsoft would good.

 Hi,

 I think this topic started somewhere because of my Out of Office AutoReply
 emails.
 Sorry for the incovenience, Im working out of Portugal in London, but i
 deactivated this function remotely.
 Concerning this matter, its a mickeysoft tool - Yes - confirmed. I have
 always a lot of people trying to contact me concerning Urgent issues and its
 necessary to give them an easy path to reach me - this tool of autoreply is
 usefull.

 I can sugest something logic: 

 - since the tool for filtering Out of Office AutoReply on the origin will
 not be developed in short time, and there will be for sure another users
 using Out of Office AutoReply, the smart mailing-list mail-server should
 apply a rule filtered by subject because the subject field seems to be
 always the same Out of Office AutoReply:.

 so,
 the rule would be: if subject field starts with string Out of Office
 AutoReply:, the mail is dropped else proceed.


 regards,
 j0rge card0s0
