Out of Office Assistant

In Microsoft Outlook (and Outlook Web Access), the Out of Office Assistant option allows you to collect messages in your Inbox while you are out of the office, and replies automatically to incoming messages.

The Out of Office Assistant notifies users who send you mail that you are out of the office and cannot reply immediately. The AutoReply feature will notify each sender only once, even if you receive multiple messages from that person.
