automatic vacation message

Can you configure Outlook so that it automatically sends out a message you
have created to inform persons sending you email that you are on vacation
until a certain date.

If you don't connect to an Exchange server, there is no automatic out of
office autoreply. You'd have to spoof it with rules, and note that this
means leaving Outlook open, and connected to the internet, for the duration
of your absence.

See http://www.slipstick.com/rules/index.htm for help.

Also see http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=196718 - it explains how to set
up a template so that autoreply fires only once per sender (as Out of Office
does) to avoid mail loops.
