Outlook 2003 Reply to All bug?

[Danny Russell]

When I receive an external email and click reply to all
Outlook 2003 puts my address in the to list of the reply
as well. If I reply to the exact same email in Outlook
2000 it doesnt include me in the reply!!!! Whats going on?
Why is 2003 doing this?

Many Thanks for any assistance or comments.

Previous versions of Outlook had a problem knowing who you were, so if you
had more than one account in the profile, Outlook replied to all addresses.
Outlook 2003 fixed that - it removes your address from reply to all provided
the address matches the one in your profile.

Which version of exchange server are you using? As long as the address the
message was sent to is one of your SMTP addresses it should not reply to it.

Hi Diane,

Thanks for your quick reply. I'm afraid I dont understand your response
however. The problem is that now under 2003 it is sending the reply to all
to me as well, whereas before in 2000 it didnt (how we want it to be)

When you click "reply to all" on an external email in 2003 you are
included in the TO field of the response. When clicking "reply to all" on
the same email in Outlook 2000 however you are not included in the TO
list.

THe only visable differences are that in 2003 my name appears as
(e-mail address removed) (external address) in the recipients
field of the original email. In 2000 my name appears as russell daniel
(internal address)

If that makes any sense to you?

Hi Diane,

We are using Exchange 5.5.
I have taken a look under my user properties and the address is in there as an smtp address.

Which version of exchange server are you using? As long as the address the
message was sent to is one of your SMTP addresses it should not reply to it.

Just to clarify.

My account is on exchange 5.5 server.
My colleagues is on Exchange 2003
We are both using Outlook 2003 and are experiencing this problem. The address is one of our smtp addresses yet Outlook 2003 is replying to it in "reply to all".
Performing the exact same action on an Outlook 2000 installation with both accounts does not have this problem. This must surly be a problem with Outlook 2003?

I am unable to reproduce the problem with my setup so I can't say if it's a
problem with outlook 2003 or an issue with how outlook or exchange is setup.

Okay, Thanks for your help. Looks like I'm going to have to go to MS PSS about this.
