Some companies require the usage of the Out of Office AutoReply feature,
and it appears that Compaq is one of them. IMHO, it's a Very Good Thing
in a corporate environment, although it can be a nuisance if the person
is on a maillist. Since I'm retired now and no longer have access to
Outlook Explorer (ain't that a damn shame), I don't know if there are
settings that will prevent replying to some messages based on e-mail
addresses, but stopping these messages at the source is probably the
best remedy.

Well, you might have a filter capability with hotmail. I have never
used them, so I don't know. If you have a pop3 type account and you
use anything from pine to Kmail to pick up mail you have either
filter rules or the name to drop into a kill folder.
But the best way to deal with the situation is to write to the person
who set up the autoreply, as soon as he is back in his office and
inform him _courteously_ of the problem he probably wasn't aware he
was causing.

LookOut, I mean Outlook, does not have a feature to my knowledge to not
reply with OOO to a specific sender. The best way I have found to
rememdy this situation is to set up a free pop account for mailing
lists. At some companies, though not mine, you can configure Lookout,
doh, Outlook to recieve internet mail via the POP account into a
seperate mail file with in...you guessed it! Outlook.
