Personally, I think people should stop using inferior products from M$ that lack key features. Truth is, I love Billy G. , 'cause I make my living fixing things and he has kept me busy on many occasions.

LOL You don't use MS Exchange / Outlook, do you Clif?
If you work for an organisation that uses these products, i.e. most of the world, you simply don't have that kind of control. There's an 'Out of Office Rules Wizard' which allows you to send the message you see on the list, one to each email address that sends you a message. The alternatives are to set up your very own OoO rules, which is much more difficult that the idiot Wizard, or to unsubscribe from the list, then re-subscribe when you get back from leave.
Personally, I think it would be better if your mail server just dropped any message with a subject containing " is out of the office", when the subject does not contain "[ADMIN]". Yes I know it's an ambulance at the bottom rather than a fence at the top of the cliff, but ...

Wouldn't auto-responders reply to the list?While it has not been unusual for the poster to get several OOO messages when posting to the list, I have noticed an increase in OOO messages being directed to the list address itself.
Both are in very bad form.
Please ask whoever configures your responders to add a check for the header "Precedence: list" and do not respond to those messages.
Thanks.
