Use the General tab for the remote domain's properties to configure the settings that determine the types of out-of-office messages that are sent to recipients in the remote domain. The type of out-of-office messages that are available in your organization depends on both the Exchange client version and the Exchange server version. The out-of-office message is set on the client and is sent by the server.

An Exchange client that has a mailbox located on a Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Mailbox server and that accesses their mailbox by using Microsoft Outlook Web Access or Outlook 2007 can configure both internal and external out-of-office messages.

An Exchange client that uses Outlook 2003 or earlier can configure only one type of out-of-office message.

An Exchange client that has a mailbox located on an Exchange 2003 or earlier server can have only one type of out-of-office message sent on their behalf.

    • Allow external out-of-office messages, and out-of-office messages set by Outlook 2003 or earlier clients or sent by Exchange Server 2003 or earlier servers
