Given that a person cannot be 100% sure who will communicate with them, who needs to be given the "I'm out of the office", what would you do? I don't know a way using Outlook to say "everybody from abc.com". But I'm not very literate and our PC folks don't really care to be bother with training for "exceptional" usage.
I am currently on vacation (so why am I here?), and have set up a fairly complicated "out of office" reply configuration using MS Outlook (like I had a choice.) Hopefully nobody here is getting any out-of-office replies from me. I don't seen any in the archives. However, if somebody has the "reply-to" set to themselves instead of the list, they may well get one (or more). -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer UICI Insurance Center Information Technology This message (including any attachments) contains confidential information intended for a specific individual and purpose, and its content is protected by law.
