When setting "out of office reply" I have found that internal users get the reply but external clients do not.

Microsoft Outlook 2000

thanks
 
What you need to do is specify the SMTP address in the "Sent to" field, as well as ticking the "Sent to me" and "CC:ed to me" boxes.

Hope this is clear, I'm talking from memory here since our Exchange server is down for maintenance at the moment so I can't check =)

It is disabled on the Exchange server. You will need the Exchange server admin to enable this for external clients to receive the reply joegz

Thanks, specifically where would I enable it. I’m running exchange 5.5 nt 4.0.

I copied this from one of the other threads:

(1) Open up the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program
(2) go to the Site
(3) Click on the "Connections" tab
(4) on the right hand side, double click on the
"Internet Mail Service". This will open up
the IMS properties
(5) Click on the "Internet Mail" tab. From this screen,
(At the bottom of screen) click on "Advanced Options"
(6) From Advanced options you will see from here if the
out of office is disabled. If this is check marked
you can deselect this. Click "ok" and now you should
see out of office working to the Internet. (Leave a
little time for replication and then test by sending
hotmail)
