Out of Office Assistant with Multiple Email Accounts

S

I have one user who receives email from 5 different accounts. When she is out
of the office, she wants the Out of Office Assistant to only reply to one of
the accounts. I tried using the "rules" section of the Out of Office
Assistant to no avail. Without entering in a text message first that is sent
once to each sender, it wouldn't apply the rules I created. But, she doesn't
want it reply once to each sender from all her email addresses - just the
main one.

Next, I tried to just use the rules wizard. Basically, the rule was: "if
sent to email address #1" then "send this template" and I specified a custom
template I had created that had the "Out of Office" message in it. This did
not work either! I feel I must have done something wrong.

We are using Outlook 2003 with Exchange 2003 (on SBS 2003). We are using the
POP3 connector. In the POP3 connector, the different email addresses are all
associated with the user account of this user.

If I'm on the right track here, can someone let me know? What could I have
done incorrectly, if so?
