We have recently upgraded to Office 2007. The Out of Office Reply works when
a user turns it on. However, in 2000 and 2003 it used to prompt the user to
turn it off when they first logged back on when returning to their email for
the first time. So far I can not get Outlook 2007 to do this.
Is there a way to get it to prompt the user to turn off the Out of Office
Assistant again? we are using Exchange 2003 if it matters.

Thanks
Dale

Not out of the box. OL2k7 pops up a flag out of the systray when you start
Outlook, rather than a dialog box. Exchange 2007 will give Outlook the ability
to put on an end time to the OOF period which will alleviate the issue, but
otherwise, right now, you're looking at developing a solution.
