Out of office

[Guest]

Hello,

Is there any way to set an option so that the Out Of Office message is sent
every time someboday emails that person. It defaults to only sending each
person 1 message. I would like it to resend every time.

Thanks

Judith

And in doing so you will really get up people's noses.

I realise this but this is what my client wants.

AFAIK it can't be done, thank goodness.

Yes, in Outlook 2000, connected to an Exchange server, you can create a rule
to send the out of office reply each time an e-mail is received. Go to
Tools, Out of Office assistant, click add rule. Leave the from line blank,
Sent to would be the user name of client, check reply with and click template
put in subject line and body of message which has to be edited for each time
they leave the office save the rule and check the box in front of rule to use
it (on the Out Of Office Assistant Page). Click the out of office at the top
of assistant box and it should send this message each time they get an e-mail.
Good luck!

I think you might well find that the setting up of the Out of Office Rule
which you described, does not have a function to reply EVERY time an email
is sent by a particular sender...

A rule should. The OOA won't.

I actually use this feature and it does send OOR each time a e-mail is
received even for the same sender. I have two users whose auto OOR do not
work with one reply and I had to set this up as a work around. But thanks
for your input!
