Need help with creating rules for autoresponce

[Guest]

Hi, I been trying to learn how to make an automatic replies with outlook. I
looked at some tutorials, but it seems that I'm missing some functions. I
can't find the "replay with message" action, the closest thing it gives me is
a "reply using a specific template". So I try to make a template, but I
don't have the option to save as a .oft. I even tried changing the extention
of my word file to .oft, but it just turns it into a blank e-mail. I am
currently using office 2003 pro. Any help would me greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advanced

note:
from the article - don't use Word as your editor when creating the text
message you use as a template.

reply using a specific template is the action you use.

You need to use the outlook editor
