Hi. If you are setting an out-of-office reply because you are going on holiday, I presume that you won't be checking your e-mail during that time. If you don't check your e-mail, then Mac OS X Mail will never get the chance to send its autoresponses. In order to send auto-responses in your absence, there needs to be some co-operation provided by your mail service provider (e.g. your Internet Service Provider). That is, the auto responses need to be done automatically by your mail server (not by your desktop). The details of how to achieve this with your provider, and whether they support configuration of this feature via Mac OS X Mail, is something that you probably have to ask them about.
