Outlook 2000 and Out of Office

[Kirk Bostwick]

Hello, just a quick question. Is there any way to setup
Outlook 2000 or Exchange 2000 to auto-reply to emails
sent from outside our company? My understanding is that
it was intended for Exchange organizations, not disperate
email systems. What is the truth and if possible, how
would one enable the feature?

Thanks!

Kirk

Microsoft does make an add-in for outlook that adds the external OOF. It is
not publicly available

It is a setting on Exchange server that denies replies and forwards to the
internet. It is on by default. Ask the exchange admin to change it and
then cover your ears to drown out the laughter.
