[Archived] Out Of Office Reply Problem

[Paul]

I have been trying, unsuccesfully, to set up an Out of Office Reply in Outlook 2007. We do not have Microsoft Exchange so I need to emulate the process. I've followed the instructions at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/311107 .

Outlook does create a reply and places it in the Outbox but cannot send the message. This is because it has failed to put an address in the To area.

Any thoughts?

I dont use microsoft office, as i use Mozilla Thunderbird as my email client. I use office at work, so try going to tools, options and email options and look in there. Otherwise check the toolbar, and click on the out of office assistant. Type your message, and then send an email to yourself 1st and see what happens.

Which ISP are you using email from? As some allow you to log on to a webmail page and set up an out of office that way.
