Posted: 6/16/2009 3:30:28 PM EDT

How does one set outlook to respond to e-mails with the "I will be out of the office until xx-xx-09" my wife needs it for work and I don,t use outlook for e-mail. I assume they 2007, or whatever the latest version is.

Thanks :)

From the help section:

Automatically reply to incoming messages while
out of the office

Most personal
e-mail accounts through an Internet
service provider (ISP) (ISP: A business that provides
access to the Internet for such things as electronic mail, chat rooms, or use of
the World Wide Web. Some ISPs are multinational, offering access in many
locations, while others are limited to a specific region.) are
POP3 accounts and do not support this feature.

In Mail, on the Tools menu, click Out of Office Assistant.

I don't see
the Out of Office Assistant command

The Out of Office
Assistant command does not appear unless you are using an Exchange Server
e-mail account and you are in the Mail view.

Click I am currently Out of the Office.

In the AutoReply only once to each sender with the following
text box, type the message that you want to send to others while you are
out.

If you want, create rules (rule: One or more automatic actions taken on
e-mail messages and meeting requests that meet certain conditions, along with
any exceptions to those conditions. Rules are also referred to as
filters.) to manage your incoming mail.
