If I turn on my out-of-office message, it doe not automatically turn off the
next time I log in to my Outlook. I use Windows 2007. When I had an older
version, I would log in and a message would pop up asking me if I wanted to
turn off my out-of-office message.
 
From Outlook Help I see this in the instructions about Out of Office
Assistant

"If you do not specify a start and end time, auto-replies will be sent
until you click Do not send Out of Office auto-replies."

That message has changed from a dialog box to a system toast, much like a
new mail toast.

The primary reason for that change is the fact that Outlook 2007 when combined
with Exchange 2007 gives you the ability to specify a start and end date
for the Out of Office, so it was seen that such a 'in your face' reminder
wouldn't be needed, assuming everyone updated to Exchange 2007.
