I am having difficulty getting this to work correctly. I have a user on maternity leave. A co-worker turned on the out of office assistant but neglected to put in any text. When I tested it from an AOL account, when it had no text, I received it. After I added text however, and re-tested, I never received it at the AOL account. It worked fine internally, but not externally. I re-set the Exchange server to allow automatic responses to the Internet thinking that was the problem, but there was no change. Has anyone seen this before and what do I need to do to fix this? Thanks!

Out of Office assistant with Outlook 2000

Did you actually turn the out of office off on the clients Outlook account and then back on when you change the text or did you just change the text without turning it off?
Unless you turned it off and back on Outlook will only send the message once if you are testing from the same AOL address. joegz
