- In Outlook, enable your out-of-office message, set it to start right now.
- Click Save.
- Immediately see a pop-up asking if you want to turn that off.
WTF Microsoft? Who would ever do that?
I suppose someone might have turned it on for the wrong dates, but 99.99% of the time this is just annoying.
i have to agree to disagree here. in my career i have seen far, far too many people with their out of office message long out of date, and still running after they are back. this is a very useful feature that has cut back on those experiences significantly.
