E-mail and vacations

There is a way to post an "out of office auto reply"
message on my e-mail while I am on vacation and I cannot
figure out how to do this. I know it exists because I
have received the messages from collegues. Can anyone
help me with this process???

If you are using an Exchange server, yes, Otherwise, you
will need to use Rules Wizard, leave your machine on, and
set it to periodically check for mail. The downside to
this is that you will confirm your email address
as "valid" to any spam messages that you get.

You may want to see if your ISP offers this service as
many of them have vacation messages.

Go to Tools / Out of Office Assistant. Click on the "I am
currently Out of the Office" radio button. Then if you
want, you can put text in the box that follows for your
readers to view when they get your Out of Office Message.
