link between outlook Calender and Mail out-of-office states

[Guest]

In Outlook 2003 it would be nice to be able to set up the Calender so that it
automatically starts the email out-of-office assistant, when I have an
out-of-office event in my Calender.
Maybe have a sub-menu the can be activated, similar to the reccuring meeting
menu, in which you can enter an out of office email message and any rules,
which would be passed to the out-of-office Assistant under Mail, when the
date of the Event is reached.
I am pretty sure something similar isn't available under Office Outlook
right now, or if it is. it is well hidden!

Outlook 2007 with Exchange 2007 will allow more features in this vein.
