Out of Office Reply but not with Exchange

[Gis Bun]

Hi.

I'm trying to create an out of office reply message in an non-Exchange
environment. According to
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HA011223851033.aspx I need to
create a template. When I get to part 6 in creating the template, I don't see
"Outlook Template" in the save type. Ideas?

Thanks

Set Outlook as your email editor when creating the template.

Hi.

Did that. Maybe missing an installation component from Office?

*.oft is not available to you?
Which ones are?

Which version of Outlook are we talking about here anyway?

Hi,

Using Office 2003 Pro. Outlook 2003 but no BCM.

When I click File -> Save As and see the list for "Save as Type", I get:
Word Document *.DOC
XML Document *.XML
Single Web Page
Web Page
Web Page, Filtered
Document Template .DOT
Rich Text Format .RTF
Plain Text .TXT
Word 97-2003 & 6.0/95 - RTF .DOC
Word 6.0 & 7.0 .WPS
Word 7.0 WPS

Thanks

Then you have Word set as your email editor. As I said; set it to Outlook.

Wooops.

I can't read the page's direction. Actually twice.
