Hi All, Is there a way to send an automatic message when a new mail is received ? I tried issuing a rule from outlook. It does work but the client must be opened in order to send the message. Out of the Office can be a solution...BUT......the subject of the send message starts with "Out of the office : MY SUBJECT" . Any help will be appreciated. Regards.

choose "have the server reply using specific template". not the outlook client.

First of all , thank you for your reply. I just issued the rule using the "have the server reply using specific template" , the rule is on , but it doesn't work. I tried to send a few message and i didnt receive any reply Any clue ? Regards.

UPDATE : If the mail is sent by an internal user it works...otherwise it doesn't.

ok, you're half way there. open exchange system manager expand global settings right click on internet message format click theadvanced tab select the allow automatic replies tab. exchange prevents this type of traffic to the internet by default.
