Hello, I just installed Exchange 2007 SP1 on my organization.
I have Outlook 2003/2007 connected to Exchange server .
I try to set up "Out of Office" auto reply feature on outlook. Its Works
fine for "Inside my Organization" users but does not work for anybody for
does not starts.

Is there anything may be wrong in my Exchange setting I have looked at?

Thank you in advance,

Alex

Get-RemoteDomain -Identity "*" | Format-List AllowedOOFType

If it is set to None, you can use Set-RemoteDomain to change it.

Thank you Ed.

I seems to me I found the promlem.
According to Microsoft Only Outlook client 2007 users are able
simultaneously use "Out-of-Office" auto reply for both internal and external
Out-of-Office massages.



Outlook 2003 users can configure only one type of out-of- office messages.



Link to that is bellow:

Am I right?



Thank you in advance,

Yes, that is correct.  Outlook 2003 users with Exchange 2007 can set that
using OWA, however.  If they do so, they should not make any changes to it
using Outlook 2003 or they may break their settings.

Ed, I did that but Auto Reply for Outside Users for Outlook 2003 clients
doesn’t work. I disable Auto reply in Outlook and setup it on OWA. It still
automatically starts to work for Inside Users but does not work for
Outsiders.  I need set up Auto Reply Out-of-Office for Outside users. Any
help with that will be really appreciated.
