Doug, Jeff: Hi. I don't know what mail program you are running, but I use Microsoft Outlook. It has a Rules Wizard (as I'm sure many other email programs do) that allows you to filter out these annoyances. I just tell it to look at the subject line for Out of Office AutoReply: [SI-LIST] and to permanently delete it. This filters out 98% of these replies. The other 2 or 3 are usually from countries outside the U.S. and you could probably make up a delete rule for them as the arrive. Just a thought. I hope I don't get inundated with Out of Office AutoReplies :^) Regards, Matt -----Original Message----- From: Doug Smith [mailto:doug@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2003 11:54 AM To: jeff.loyer@xxxxxxxxx Cc: Signal Integrity Mailing List Subject: [SI-LIST] Re: Please turn off your account when OOP I agree!
