I have always been flabbergasted by people who include vacation details (especially if they’ll be out of the country) in their OOO messages. I’m not a burglar, nor do I know any. (I hope!) But the people with the message don’t know that!
Greatest update to Outlook, ever. We also got this feature for our office VM, and, as a chronic forgot-to-reset-my-VMer, it’s great not to have the first line of EVERY VM my first week back be, “Hey, your OOO message is still on….”.
It’s also expected that if you’re in Wales you put the effort in to at least try and read Welsh, but tbh I can barely read English before 10am.
Honestly, I like when people do this. I think it’s straightforward and it makes it clear that I still am in ownership of the problem (as opposed to wondering whether the other person has/will see it and what their timeline is).
I’m currently out of the office this week as I’ve taken some time off to travel. However, I’ll reach out to you when I’m back.
This message is really long. I’d probably just hit delete and try to get in touch with someone else.
Please contact (Contact Person with email and phone) if you need immediate assistance.
From 20th till 31st of July I will be out of the office with limited access to my email.

Yes! I would roll my eyes *a*lot* at that message – it comes across as someone taking themselves way too seriously.
We sent a message from the Android phone to the iPhone number that has already been set in vacation settings. And finally, we received an auto-reply text from iPhone to the Android phone.
