May I just comment that I have tried six times to remove my address from
this list, due to "out of office" reasons and yet still continue to
receive DP emails while away; so it may be that people are not lazy or
forgetful, but that the instructions for opting out of this list do not
work.

I have now created the rule. So, everyone who sets "out of office" and
vanishes on vacation will receive a polite and educational message.
It'll be amusing if this message generates a deluge back to forgetful
people.

It REALLY is not arduous to send an email to [log in to unmask]
with the one liner "Set * Nomail" in it.
Instead those of us who post get to see your blasted holiday
arrangements. Well we don't care!
If this were a newsgroup you would all find yourselves flamed
individually. OK, I have a rule that sends all this stuff to the manure
pile, but some people create "out of office" rules that just don't
comply.
It's slipshod and downright rude to the rest of us. And, even when you
get asked this regularly, you STILL persist in this behaviour.
To those other souls who are still at work, I apologise for my rant.
Those who took the nanosecond to "set * nomail" will not see this, but I
drink to"Absent friends". The rest? May your mailboxes overflow and
your first day back at work be blessed with 1,000,000 message mailboxes,
none of it identifiable as spam.
I may set a rule to intercept the out of office rubbish which mails the
originator with precise instructions. Probably on how to use the list
commands.
