    sending out of office asst replies outside the company

    Scott, Remember the word SPAM?

If only for this reason think twice about turning this on externally. Our company has a great...

    How Do I Explain This One?

    Whoa!! Remember that you did not make a mistake. You made the best choice that you could with the information that you were given and able to glean in an interview. I was with my last job <3 months prior to taking the job that I currently have. There was no problem (or probing) when I stated...

    Recovering deleted e-mail

    Go to microsoft.com and search their knowledge base for article 246153. It will give you details on how to recover hard deleted items. If that doesn't work why don't you create a rule to forward a copy of all emails received to a different account? It will work until she figures it out.

We have a dedicated backup server for our Exchange restores (big company, lots of requests). You set up the Exch Admin EXACTLY as it appears in your...
