Cannot stop the Auto-Reply

J

I'm using Exchange 2k and Outlook 2003 on my client. All mail sent
from external address recieves a blank auto-reply. The auto-reply will
occur each time Outlook recieves mail from external address, regardless
of whether or not that address has already recieved an auto-reply.

It does not appear to be a server setting as it will not occur while
client Outlook is closes. Client has OOA disabled. Have tried playing
with settings, turning them on, then off; changing email format (away
from Word) etc. without any success.

Any advice is greatly appreaciated. Thanks in advance.

Have you checked the rules on that machine?

Sorry I should have said that: I did check all the rules. Actually
turned them all off for the time being. I've also played around with
turning OOF on, closing Outlook, opening Outlook and turning it off
again (no effect).

Found the answer to this. It was my GFI Mail Essentials Anti-Spam
software. There is a setting there for an auto-reply that was checked
somehow (I must have been playing with it late at night). Unchecking
it did the trick.
