Default 'Corporate' Out of Office message

Hi there. I've been asked to look at how to force users to have a
standard Out-of-Office message.

The idea is users would only have the option to switch OOA on of off,
so all users have the same corporate message when they use OOA.

As far as I know, the OOA message lives in a hidden messge file in
each individual mailbox, so having a global message could be hard to
achieve.

We use Exchange2000 and Outlook2000 as the client.

Appreciate any ideas or thoughts on this.

As far as I know there is nothing that can be done via OWA or Outlook to
prohibit the user from changing this message. You might try checking in
with one of the Exchange groups to see if there is a way to limit this, but
I don't think anyone will be able to come up with a sure fire method other
than suggest to users what would be an acceptable format/blurb for OOA.
