I suppose that's why out of office only replies to each sender once now. I recall that exchange used to send ooo replies every time, and that must have been in '99 or the early 2000s. I wonder if there was some other fix for the problem, I never saw evidence of that problem even then

This was the early to mid 2000s. I honestly don't remember the specifics. But I do remember the emails coming from somewhere in Eastern Europe, so it may have been some crap system on their end that treated each reply as a unique conversation. Which could be why our Exchange server kept replying.
