I really wonder, how much lobbying must be done to a company, until they use Lotus Notes. I know... Notes can do absolutely everything - but unfortunately, nobody needs all those functions. People just want mail and some calendering. And that's just the two things, Notes cannot handle right (at least not in the default config - and that's what people use, because they don't spend money on a mailsystem in order to customize it to be useable). But I'm getting off-topic and shutting up now.


Actually, that is a little bit unfair towards Notes.

Because this is an area where it really beats the pants right of MSExchange. I remember quite well, that you have a checkbox under "Exceptions" for "Do not send out vacation messages to the internet", which is something that I'm still missing in Exchange. Furthermore you can specify subjects that it should not reply to, and since all our internal e-mail lists had the format [foo-ig] or [foobar-an], putting something along the line of "-an], -ig]" in that field, and you wouldn't even spam internal lists. That was really cool, and possible back even in versions like the craptasticly crashing-prone 5.0.2 that was foisted on us by lazy admins.
