Out of office replies are coming from subscribers who use Microsoft outlook. If you are in a business environment your email is typically handled on an internal email server, using Microsoft Exchange. So when people go away on holiday they'll set their Out Of Office auto responder up to notify mainly people who are contacting them for business purposes. These users should strictly either unsubscribe or set vacation modes on all email lists they are members of. However, most don't which is why we get the odd Out Of office. Be assured though it's not just you getting them all of us on the lists get them.
