Is this possible in an Exchange 2003/Outlook 2003 enviroment?

I have a user who works only 2 days a week. We send her emails while she is
not here and we always get the out of office notice. We are a small company
and we all know she's not here. Can we make it so the users on her domain
will not receive out of office notices? Or is it possible for her to assign
who will not get this notice?

Thanks!

Phil

Did you read the help that is included with Outlook?

I looked and it has the following:

Create a rule with Out of Office Assistant
Some of the content in this topic may not be applicable to some languages.

This feature requires Microsoft Exchange.

1.. On the Tools menu, click Out of Office Assistant.
2.. Click Add Rule.
3.. Under When a message arrives that meets the following conditions,
specify the conditions of the rule that the message must meet for the action
to occur.
4.. To specify more conditions, click Advanced, select the options you
want, and then click OK.
5.. To specify that this rule must be the last one applied, select the Do
not process subsequent rules check box.
For Help on an option, click Help.

6.. Under Perform these actions, select the options you want. You can
select more than one option.
Note If you specify that a message must be deleted, rules that follow the
delete rule in the list of rules in the Out of Office Assistant dialog box
do not affect the message.
 
Thanks and sorry!

Why not tell her not to use OOF?
 
Actually, I couldn't figure out how to create a filter so it will not send
and OOF notice for the users on our network. Nothing worked. The filter
requires some kind of action and I want it to take no action.

This girl gets a lot of work related outside mail, that's why she has to use
it.

Any suggestions?

Is it really necessary for those outside correspondants to get the OOF
message? Or could they just wait the day or two until she gets back in and
can reply?
