Default Out of the Office Rules tips and tricks

Hi,

Can anyone tell me where to find Tips & Tricks for use
with Out of the Office rulessets.
I've tried several rules with my Out of the Office wizard.

I'm looking for a setting where I can activate my Out of
the Office for next week and do the settings today (like
Lotus Notes). I've tried to work with date rules, but it
didn't work fine.

Default Out of the Office Rules tips and tricks

Hi Bram,

I just talked to you on the phone about this but here it is for the rest of
the newsgroup;

Instead of using the OoOA create a normal Wizard Rule. Start with a blank
rule and set the condition to received within a certin timeframe. Set the
action to have the server reply with a specific message. Make sure you set
some exceptions (for instance based on the subject field so it will not
reply on subject with e.g. reply, failed, undeliverable, etc...) otherwhise
you could create endless mailloops between two mailservers and those can be
a real threat to the mailservers!

Regards,
