Out of Office only to People outside your company

[Doug]

I work for a law firm. I want to be able to send out of
office replies to users within my firm, not to any
incoming emails from outside the firm.

Any ideas?

This is controlled on the server, and is all or nothing at all. By default,
Out of Office Autreply to the Internet is disabled in Exchange. I don't know
what you can do w/r/t rules in your OOF settings on the client...I don't use
them.

in exchange system manager, go to global settings -> internet message
formats then select the properties of whatever policy is being used and on
the advanced tab, uncheck 'allow out of office responses'

I think it can be done in Entourage by setting filters to
have an automated reply sent to *@youroffice.com
NOt sure about outlook

Out of Office replies by default only are sent to internal users. If you
want these replies to go to external users as well you will need to enabled
"Allow Out of Office responses" which can be configured on the Properties of
the Default Internet Message Formats in Exchange System Manager.
