    HI Vasil
    Thanks for answering - I tried it already with Email Forwarding to a SecurityGroup and was expecting that I can apply a new rule in Exchange to all these Emails with the Message Type "AutoForward" ro prevent the OOO on these, but somehow it doesn´t work - isn´t your solution the same?

      No need for a rule, just set the SendOofMessageToOriginatorEnabled property on the group.

        Good Morning Vasil
        Is this property set by Powershell or is there any checkmark in the admin panel by any chance? (I am afraid I know the answer already - hahaha)
