I would like to create a rule that automatically forwards and other rules that automatically reply, to incoming emails. I can do that. However, I also want to be able to have a MESSAGE in those replies and forwards. I cannot find anywhere to do that. Also, I have found the action of "custom action", but I cannot find anywhere in help or in the Microsoft Knowledge Base that explains how to create a "custom action". Any assistance would be appreciated. James S.
