Tell that to the IT manager.  :-)

It really isn't that easy though. If you have a position with lots of 
customer contacts, you just cannot be silent for a week or two, you 
must respond to all unknown senders. That's why there is a 
don't-reply-to option instead of an auto-reply list.

I noticed from Christian's address that we both work for banks, so I 
recognized the problem. Being in a back-office position, I can check 
the don't-reply-to-internet option, but not everyone can afford to do 
that.

So I am using my home address for this list. ok?   :-)
