Out of Office functionality

Thu Aug 11 10:44:27 EDT 2005

Good points all -- thanks!  One follow-on question:  I see both
sap-wug at mit.edu and sap-wug-bounces at mit.edu being used, apparently
interchangeably.  Which should we be using for all our rules, posts and
replies?  Interestingly, even though the message below clearly says it's
from sap-wug-bounces at mit.adu, when I hit my reply button, the "To" field
was automatically populated with sap-wug at mit.edu.  Strange.  Guess I
should stick to SAP Workflow and not try to become an Outlook expert!

Hi all, 
For MS Outlook, set up a Rule via Tools > Rules and Alerts.

e.g. 
Apply this rule after the message arrives from sap-wug at mit.edu 
and with Out of Office in the subject
move it to the Deleted Items folder

Can't make everyone happy eh? Well, maybe one can:

Lotus Notes:
Out of Office --> Tab Exceptions
Do not automatically reply to mail addressed to: sap-wug at mit.edu

Microsoft Lookout:
Tools -> Out Of Office -> some setting ... I'm not connected to an 
Exchange Swerver but it can't be rocket science.

Set it once and it should stay that way every time you turn OO on.

Cheers
Mike
