is it an automated reply or does he actually type something in it and you
can't see it? the first could be anything from read receipts to rules or who
knows... the second is a known problem. He needs to make sure he has all the
latest patches and updates installed and disable outgoing email scanning on
his antivirus. Some firewalls do virus/trojan scanning on outbound email and
if his does, that needs disabled.

Everytime I send an email to one particular person I always get back a
reply from him a few seconds later with the same subject but nothing in
the message. He uses Outlook 2007 and it looks like some setting on there
needs adjusting to prevent this happening.

Any idea how to do this?
