Sibble Sent: 24 April 2006 17:51 To: exchangelist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ExchangeList] setup autoresponder message in owa or at least server side http://www.msexchange.org -------------------------------------------------------I've been googling but so far havent come with any thing other than 3rd party tools that seem to do a lot more than I need. Have an Exchange 2003 server with, client machines running a mix of Outlook 2000 and 2003 (in the process of migrating all the machines). Company has a mailbox jobs@xxxxxxxxxxx for all employment enquiries, resumes etc. This mailbox is only accessed via OWA since multiple people need to acces it/monitor it regularly. The onsite admin used the OOF assistance to reply to incoming message, however HR doesn't want the OOF message to go out, they want something along the lines of Subject: AUTORESPONDER: Thanks for you employment enquiry Body: Thank you for contacting us regarding employment, this is an automated response to let you know we've received your information and we'll be contacting you shortly. I used Outlook 2000 and logged in over the VPN, tried to use the rules wizard and when I click finish it says: There is not enough space on the Microsoft Exchange Server to store all your rules. The rules that failed to upload have been deactivated I had a read through the various KB on this error articles and realize that using the rules wizard is likely a waste of time since there doesn't seem to be a way adjust the rules via OWA and trying to fix the the number of rules that are already over the 32k limit is too complicated. So, what do folks recommend I do to accomplish the autoresponser functionality? Thanks -- Harondel J.
