RE: Symantec Outlook Plugin and server load
And as I have asked several times before, what's all the heartburn over a few OOO's? I get anywhere from 2 to 10 on average every time I post here. Some are rather funny to read. At worst, I get to bang on the delete key a bit to get rid of them. I still do not understand the vitriolic rage that some people here spew about having to deal with them. Get some help. Get in a primal scream therapy group. Take the red pill. Do something besides gripe about something you can't control. John H.

Well, all I know is Jason needs to configure some rules to easily eliminate those pesky OOO's or he may not live much longer due to heart failure. Lighten up a little "J", one of the things I enjoy on this list is the camaraderie between all of us, especially when we pick on Shook and TVK, Oh and, Jason, you might want to spend more time watching what your daughter does.

Re: Symantec Outlook Plugin and server load
Gee a little testy are we Jason? As has been posted here innumerable times some mail admins don't have the luxury of configuring their Exchange servers not to do this, company policy has dictated it to them, so to say that they should be unsubscribed from the list is a little harsh. I am one of those admins that has been told by upper management to allow OOO's to the internet. An attempt by the Lyris List Admin a few weeks ago resulted in us not being able to see who the messages were from at all, the general consensus by the members of this list was that we'll take the OOO's in order to see who the messages are from.

RE: Symantec Outlook Plugin and server load

How hard would it be to implement standard list behavior... i.e. Policy is to unsubscribe anybody that does this?
