How do I set up an out of office auto response?

[Guest]

Hi:
I'm a new user to Outlook and I was trying to initiate an "out of office
response"/auto reply for one of my colleagues. Can you help me out?
Thank you so much.

Yet another stupid question what is the OOA & how do I enable it?

The link provided in the first response to your post referred to
the Out of Office Assistant. Are you sure you can't see what OOA
stands for?

As far as how to enable it, I never have, but with my inbox selected,
I went to the Tools menu and found "Out of Office Assistant...". When
I click on that, I'm given a dialog that looks like it might do what
you want.

Out of Office Assistant. If your Tools menu doesn't contain it or it is
grayed out, then you are not connected to an Exchange server (OOA requires
Exchange) and you'll have to create a rule.
