Ok. I guess I was equating OOF and rules to do the same thing. Now the fog is lifting.
Thanks to all. Glen.

Just use Outlook to setup the rule...very easy to do. Setup a dummy mailbox and test it.

Is it possible to override that setting for only two users? We don't want all the many listserves that our users an on to get hammered with OOFs.

We've got two people that are retiring on July 1. Our president and VP. Both would like to have an automated reply sent to anyone that emails them. The reply would say, xxx has retired, if this is a personal email, xxx can be contacted at [email protected]. If it is work related, his replacement may be contacted at yyy.company.com <http://yyy.company.com/> . On our exchange 2003 server, we've disabled auto replies to the internet. Any way we can enable that for only those two people?
