Hi,
Thanks for the answers! The scenario I have is as follows. A person went
on vacation and configure an OOO message in her Outlook. When someone
from within the organization (i.e. in the same OU as her using the same
SMTP services) sent her emails, they got an OOO response as expected.
But when people from outside on the Internet sent her email presumably
using their own SMTP services, they did not receive any OOO response nor
any bounce or anything, just silence. Their messages were delivered but
of course she did not see them till she got back from vacation.
So if the Exchange 2003 server creates server-side rules, how come the
rules kicked in for senders on the same Exchange server or in the same OU
organization but were ignored for outside senders?
What do I check on the server? I did not see any place on the server
related to OOO rules. The only OOO related configuration I can find is
located in Outlook itself.
Best regards
Mike Salim
