spammers love it because it confirms an email address for them.  Social
engineers will also use the OOF information to get peoples names,
departments they work in, and phone numbers.  I disable OOF to the internet
on my Exchange server.

Hello All,

Don't know if this is the right place to post this. Are the out of office
messages inviting hackers to attack your corporate network? Is this a risk
to your company if employees start using the Out of Office feature?

Any comments?

Thanks in adavnce.

Rodel
