Outlook 2003 using POP3 account

[Guest]

I have a POP3 account that I'm trying to set a AutoReply for. I can't set it
up in Outlook because it is not a Microsoft Exchange Server account, right?
So I went onto my server, set the AutoReply message from there. When I send
a test from my Yahoo account, my other POP3 account sends an auto reply,
however, when I have someone send me a test from their Outlook account, it
doesn't send me an AutoReply. Help!

Your description is a little confusing. If what you wrote "...when I have
someone send me a test from their Outlook account, it doesn't send me an
AutoReply..." is what you really meant, then you weren't supposed to get an
autoreply. The person who sent you the test message should get the autoreply
(assuming you set up the autoreply correctly).

You need to be more descriptive. What is "my server"? What is "my other POP3
account". What is "their Outlook account"? It sounds like you have multiple
POP3 accounts. You need to go to each of those, log into your e-mail account
(assuming they have web-based e-mail clients) and configure the autoreply.

You assumed everything correctly so it must not have been too confusing! I
set up the autoreply correctly. I figured it out- it was just taking a while
for the AutoReply to kick in.
