Why is that bad? We have plenty of employees at other offices and other companies (and the parent company) that send us email from outside of our Exchange server. Why shouldn't I let them know that I'm on vacation for two weeks instead of them waiting on a response for two weeks and thinking I ignored them? To me it sounds more like a good practice in terms of "social engineering." If people don't know how to set their mail lists to the "no mail" option, then blame them, not the Exchange admins.
