Out of Office data is stored in hidden messages in the user's mailbox. I wonder if your unified messaging package is affecting this configuration.

Layout is Exchange 5.5sp4 servers (3 in the main site 1 each in 2 other sites). Clients are all Outlook 2K SP1. Single mailbox server, single utility server, single unified messaging server (voicemail). User will setup OOO as they normally would with just the OOO selector set and a simple message typed in with no additional rules. Others notice they are getting duplicate replies when they send to a user with OOO enabled. The replies are not exact duplicates as one message is the correct one and the other seems to be the message from a previous use of OOO. Going into the mailbox as that user shows an additional rule under the OOO assistant and when trying to access the rule it gives the message that the rule contains invalid content, do I want to edit it, editing reveals that it is just an empty rule. Deleting this rule and then exiting out of office fixes the problem. We have had a couple of changes this year prior to this problem including the addition of a new Exchange server (unified messaging) and the removal of the first Exchange server in the site but this problem was not brought to my attention until a couple of months after that. Even stranger, the problem appears to occur throughout the organization including at the other 2 sites. Any suggestions on nailing this down? >From what I can tell it only occurs once per user but with vacation season upon us it's becoming a real nuisance. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
