1. In Outlook, enable your out-of-office message, set it to start right now.
  2. Click Save.
  3. Immediately see a pop-up asking if you want to turn that off.

WTF Microsoft? Who would ever do that?

I suppose someone might have turned it on for the wrong dates, but 99.99% of the time this is just annoying.

    Not just testing, it used to be an issue many years ago. I’ve let people know that I’m still getting auto-responses when I know they are back from vacation. It happened to me too and I was reminded by my coworker. Also, the idea is you don’t check the your outlook when you are on vacation. It’s not designed for people on vacation who still check and respond to every email.
