There is a configuration for this that you might want to check out.
From the Exchange Management Shell:

Get-DistributionGroup <name> | select SendOofMessageToOriginatorEnabled

If this is set to false, then an email sent to that distribution group
where a recipient has their OoO set won't go to the sender. If set to
true, it will.

From the help:

[PS]>get-help Set-DistributionGroup -Parameter
SendOofMessageToOriginatorEnabled

-SendOofMessageToOriginatorEnabled <$true | $false>
The SendOofMessageToOriginatorEnabled parameter allows Out of Office
messages to be delivered to the senders of e-mail messages that are sent
to this distribution group. Valid values are $true or
$false. The default value is $false.

Subject: Out of office replies in Exchange 2007

Hi,

We have upgraded from Exchange 2003 to 2007 and we get out of office
replies
from one to one emails, but if we send an email to groups then we don't,
is
this a new feature of 2007?
