Unfortunately Outlook doesn't offer this capability, as far as I know.

Outlook does this. Each sender only gets one vacation message.

If you're using Outlook with an Exchange server (which is the only valid

not Outlook itself, so closing Outlook doesn't hurt anything. It's
brain-dead, but not *that* brain-dead. ;)
