The snag with out of office functionality is that auto-replies can let spammers know the address is active, so I guess you'd need to decide whether that's a small price to pay for keeping your customers informed. And whether you need to improve your spam blocking software. M Hi Rod,

But what if Joe the plumber wants to take a week off with his wife? If he's using MobileMe, won't his clients realise they can get hold of him 24-7, and ring him when he's on the beach in Spain? Presumably he'd just have to leave his mobile at home and tell his clients he was on a week off. M In terms of innovation this sounds great.
