Out of Office reply not working

[dmurfitt]

Hi,

We are having trouble with our Out Of Office reply not working. If you set the assistant to "out of the office", and set a message, it won't reply internally or externally. This is a new server, running SBS 2003. Is there a setting that needs to be enabled on Exchange?

Thanks,

Dan

Maybe you'll get better response in Business Applications. Want me to move your post?

I do not know Exchange or SBS, but I do know that you need to install Outlook as Corporate workgroup in order for OOA to work with Exchange. you probably have the right install, but thought I'd include that.

Here's some links to help you check certain settings . . .

Good Luck!!
