Be aware if you belong to mailing lists, this sort of thing is frowned upon. Last week some dude had an 'out of office reply' setup for his mail. The first one of these out of office replies to the list aggrivated everyone. Hehehe, then his MDA wasn't smart enough to know what NOT to respond to. It then started responding to his own out of office messages. What a mess. After several hundred messages and lots of peoples nerves getting frazzled, someone called his office and got one of his co-workers to shut down his machine.
