Using out of office message reply

By joycetm ·
Hello,

I have a question here about using the Out of Office function in Outlook 2000. Can I enable this function to also reply to any external e-mail addresses (apart from the same domain)?

Eg.
If somebody@yahoo.com sends a message to me@mycompany.com while I'm away and I have this option checked, will the Out of Office message be sent to this person (somebody@yahoo.com)?

I have noted that only the recipients on the same domain are able to receive the message? Is this true? How do work around this?

I would appreciate any feedback on this.

Thank you,
Joyce

The ability to send Out of Office replies depends on the system wide settings for your system. Admins can stop autoreplies from sending out to the outside world if they so desire...

You can try writing a rule in Outlook using either the Rules Wizard, or the "Add Rule" button in the out of office assistant and see if it will work that way.
