Out of Office Agent - R601

Does anyone know the order of execution for the parameters set in the Out of Office Agent? We’d like to be able to check the ‘do not automatically reply…’ option to keep from replying back to spammers, but we also have legitimate internet addressess we need to reply to.

If we add the valid addresses on the exceptions tab, will that be honored if we also check the ‘do not automatically reply’ box?
