yes, same here. our database (Cerebrum) even allows you to have several
vacation messages for different periods of time, so you may set it up
ahead of time. if the periods are overlapping, the message with the
newest start time is used. this means you could set up a six month
vacation, with a more specific message during a single week in the
middle.
