Out-of-Office Extender

Symprex Out-of-Office Extender is a Windows service that can reset the out-of-office sender list every midnight for all or a selected set of mailboxes.

When using the Outlook Out of Office Assistant, out of office replies are sent only once to the same sender for the full duration of being active. This is often inadequate when the user is away for a longer period of time.

Out-of-Office Extender resets the sender list for all or a selected set of mailboxes every midnight, ensuring that senders will get an out of office reply the first time every day they send an e-mail to a user that is out of the office.

This approach avoids mail loops, and avoids senders getting the same out of office reply more than once a day, but also ensures that senders are "reminded" that the receiver is out of the office on any given day they send a message.
