Folks,

I'm trying to figure out a way to have an auto-reply sent from a distribution list in Exchange 5.5. I cannot figure out a way to do this.

Since a distribution list is not an account, using the Rules Wizard does not seem to be an option.

Neither is using a mailbox instead of a distribution list, since multiple people need to get the incoming messages.

Anyone have a solution to this problem?

Thanks,

Joe

Set up a mailbox or Public folder with the auto-reply you want then make it a member of the DL

This is not what I did, but it got me on the right track. I did not realize you could set up a rule on a mailbox that pertains to incoming messages to a DL, but you can, so that is what I did. Thanks!
