Outlook never had the ability to set the Out of Office reply when setting a
meeting to Out. You probably had a third party solution installed that did
this for you in Outlook 2002 but it may not be working in 2003 version. I
would ask your Exchange admin or the Network admin if such a tool had been
installed. It may also have been a program that someone wrote to accomplish
this.

After furious head scratching, rangoon asked:

| Hello,
|
| We have migrated to Outlook 2003 + Microsoft Exchange V6.0.6603.0
|
| When we had Outlook 2002, I could create a metting, set availability
| to "out of office" and this we activate the "out of office" auto
| reply when i receive mails.
| Since we came to Outlook 2003 it does not work any more. :-(
|
| Is it a known bug ? something that we can't do anymore ? an error in
| my outlook settings ? Do you have a solution ?
|
| Nota : I have absolutly no access to the Exchange server, I only have
| Outlook with basic user rights...
|
| thanks in advance !
