Thanks for the tips. My sleep-deprived brain wasn't fully in gear when
sending that request to the list out. The suggestion to unsubscribe was a
last resort (or for people in large organizations running Exchange where
their calendaring app will automate autoresponders for PTO but the chances
of getting their messaging team to setup filters is about as likely as pigs
flying...not that I have personal experience with that *blink*).
