I am trying to make a rule that tells people I am out of
office because I don't have an out of office menu (do not
use Exchange). When I select "reply using a specific
template" I run into a problem. I do not have
any "Standard Templates" loaded so I want to create one
under "User Template in File System". But this is looking
for a *.oft file. What is a *.oft file and how do I create
one? Any other way to accomplish making this rule?
 
Create your out of office message using Outlook's mail editor, not word.
then use file->save as->outlook template file (.oft). It will save to your
default folder for templates. Then, when creating your rule, you will be
able to use this template.
