Steve I believe what you are looking for is in Format on the front screen of
your Outlook.  Click on out of office assistant and a screen will appear and
you can put whatever message you want to appear in the box.  Just click ok
and you should be all set.  If someone wants to contact you they will know
that you will be gone during a specific time frame and wait.

Hi Jean!

Below is how you stop your TechNet email while you are gone. DO NOT use your
auto responder! You could get logged-off by the list administrator, which
then you may have to go through the hassle of getting subscribed again.
Below
is what I pasted from IPC's web page from the page of IPC online
resources...

-Steve Gregory-

All you do is send a email as below...don't put anything in the subject box,
and in the body of the message just type: SET TechNet nomail

Then when you get back, do the same thing but in the body of the message
type: SET TechNet mail

That's it!

Example:

TO:[log in to unmask]
SUBJECT:
MESSAGE:SET TechNet nomail

Please note that the commands, addresses and forum names are not case
sensitive, and you can send as many commands as you need in one message as
long as they are on separate lines.

Mail/Nomail

Setting the NOMail option stops mail from the forum to you, but leaves you
subscribed to the list. NOMail is often used by subscribers who are leaving
the office for vacation or an extended business trip, and do not want a full
mailbox when they return.

For example, to temporarily disable mail delivery from TechNet to your
address, send the following command:

SET TechNet NOMAIL

Please note, if you use an auto-responder while on vacation without setting
your subscription options to NOMail, your "vacation" messages may bounce
back
to the mail list and you may be "served off" from the forum when you return.
This is because the server will be unable to process the message from your
auto-responder and will consider it an error. Being "served off" simply
means
that any commands you send to mail list will be ignored until the forum
administrator restores your normal status.
