The formula code can be seen below which can be copy and pasted. The agent
trigger should be set to "If New Mail Has Arrived". A person will only receive
one out of office notification during a vacation period if multiple emails are
sent.

WORKS GREAT! But, if you plan to roll agent out to several people in your
company change the trigger to "On Schedule Daily" and acting on "All new and
modified documents since last run" to minimize server load during peak hours.
