I am using Outlook 2000. I am going on vacation and would like to automatically reply to incoming messages that I will contact them when I return. Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thanks very much in advance.
 
Hi Michael -- You can send an Out of Office reply in one of two ways:

1) If you're using Outlook with Exchange Server, you can use the Out of Office Assistant to create a reply message to e-mail sent to you while you're away.

2) If you aren't using Exchange you can create a rule to send an automatic reply.

For info on how to do both of these things, read my column here: http://office.microsoft.com/assistance/preview.aspx?AssetID=HA011275251033

and look under the heading "Let Outlook tell everyone you are G-O-N-E"
