Robert,

This isn't a problem. Well, it is, but not a virus or spy-spam or
anything. Someone is using Outlook's 'Out of Office' facility. This
allows a user to set up an automatic response such as the one you saw to
any mail received over the exchange server during a period of absence.
Ideally, if you're setting one of these up, you need to turn off you
mailing list mail while you're away. This list offers such a facility.

Dian's ezine had an article recently by Linda Johnson on how to simulate
this facility without Exchange Server:

Subject: Off List MSO: Inquiry pls

Is there a problem with MSO?

I have sent two email inquiries, both resulted in an email that said:
------------------
I will be out of the office from August 25th  returning Monday,
September 8th.

If you have any issues, please contact Dave Carroll, Bill Curlew or
Michele 
Shute
----------------------
This sounds like a variation of the Zollo problem we had recently. I
wasn't 
sure if there was a problem with the service or if someone was playing.

Thank you.
