Out of Office

[SCOTT]

My Out of Office is only sending reply's to users within
my company. How can I make it reply to external emails?

Thanks,
Scott

You need to get your admin to change the default settings. If he knows his
salt, he (or she) will be VERY reluctant to do it as that means SPAM!

I'm afraid I'm not knowledgable about Exchange - your IT support should be
able to tell you.

Exchange has a setting for "disable automatic replies to the Internet" (I'm
not sure if that's the exact syntax, but you can probably find it with that
information). In Exchange 5.5 and later, this setting is the default, so
the Exchange admin would have to change that setting to permit Out of Office
replies to be sent outside the local Exchange environment.

If you you are using Exchange 2000. Goto "Exchange System Manager", expand
"Global settings", click on "Internet Message Format", on the right side
click with right mouse button on "Default" and go to "Properties", goto the
"Advanced" tab and check "Allow out of office responses".

That will do the job.
