[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would add 'out of the office' replies.

Really?

Anybody who has a smart phone (which is 99.999% of everybody I work with) does not have 'limited access' to voicemail.

I have never used this - I keep up with my work and email while I am out - it doesn't take that long and people depend on me so as a courtesy I make sure that they don't have to wait until I return.

I understand that some people have jobs where life marches on or where you don't think about work issues when you leave at 5:00, but when you have a job that is an integral part of a business, have some courtesy and respond to a few simple emails - by the way, it will make your transition back to work after a couple of days off a lot easier because you won't have to get caught up on things that happened while you were gone.

This in bold means that you're on vacation and you aren't working.  I like getting these emails, then I can decide whether to contact someone else in the group, or to wait until the person in back from vacation.
