Don't Annoy Email Lists With Automated Responses
Do you use an automated email response when you leave your office for a week? If you're subscribed to numerous email lists, then you could be annoying tons of people on some email list unnecessarily with your, “I'll be out of the office from now until…” emails. Most modern email programs that include the ability to send automated responses while you're away also allow you to include a list of addresses not to respond to. Rather than having to configure this every time you go away for a couple days and leave an automated response, try to update the list of emails not to automatically respond to every time you subscribe to a new listserve, as that will make your organizational job easier and help you easily avoid annoying hundreds of people on email lists.
