Trying to send an automated email w/o using out of office

[MadanB]

Hi all,

We recently let out CFO go, and I'm now trying to setup some sort of auto reply email which would give the person emailing the new information. I'm trying to do this without using the out of office, because most people don't really read the out of office but just discard it. Do you folks know of any automated way to do this with Exchange2003?

TIA!

Hi,
What you want to do is just create a regular rule in outlook that replies with some text. Make sure that you don't use the "reply with template" option as this is a client-only rule and won't process once you close outlook.
Cheers
