That's cool. I'd love to get other exchange admin's views on the pros
and cons of leaving external OOO messages disabled. I know that there are security issues with having vacation messages get sent to the entire world, however there is also the risk of angry customers not understanding why people are responding to their emails for weeks on end. Does anyone have a strong opinion either way?

Yes - leave it off. There is a reason it is off by default - look up the definition of a mail loop and then ask again why it is off by default.

In addition to what Milly said there is another thing you might want to
reconsider; business processes. How do you continue your busines when somebody suddenly gets ill? Have the customers wait an extra day? What if he walks under a buss? Instead of just personal addresses consider using a team/department or whatever address as well. Use that address as the contact address and not the private address. Private addresses go away when the employees leave; you don't want your customers to leave because of that as well? If you still want to use private addresses, instead of telling your customers that you are away make sure that they still get their answers from somebody else. Deletegate your email during your absense or forward it internally instead. -- Robert Sparnaaij [MVP-Outlook] Coauthor, Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.howto-outlook.com/ Outlook FAQ, HowTo, Downloads, Add-Ins and more ----- "Alan Truism" wrote in message ups.com...

You can create specific domains under "Global Settings", "Internet Message
Format" default" and allow OOF for those domains. "Alan Truism" wrote in message ups.com... That's cool.
