Rule for automated reply

[Winnipeg Michael]

I have a Rule set up for an employee on vacation, that when an email is sent,
it will send an automated reply that "I will not be in the office". However,
the Rule only works once. Can it work for each time an email is sent to the
person on vacation? Or is it a given that once you get the automated reply,
you know that the person is on vacation?

Thanks

An Out of Office Assistant (needs Exchange) will only reply once per sender
per time that you turn it on.
A server-side rule (needs Exchange) will always reply no matter how often a
sender sends you an email.
A client-side rule will only reply once per sender per Outlook session.
