RE: Out of office/vacation messages
->Must really suck to put ALL those rules on and take them off ->every time you go ->on vacation. (Yes, I'm on at least 65 mailing lists - and ->that's just the ones ->high-volume enough to warrant filtering to their own folder). -> And even if you're ->on only 4 or 5 lists, that's enough work to mean it's likely ->you'll forget one. No, you setup the rules once and then turn on the OoO when necessary.. I have 40 or so rules.. and they are relatively easy.. -> ->Hardly a selling point for your choice of software. Unless ->it's a disguised ->"My management makes me use software so broken I have to...." story? I seem remember a conversation about a "big" business standard would not be a "big" business standard without good reason...... <ALMOST PUT AN EMOTICON>

"You buy the upgrade, or we break your data" is generally considered a good reason. I don't recall saying that the good reason had to be a *technical* one. :)
