There is one situation where you can end up with loops. Part of the out
of office GUI includes the ability to create auto-fire rules on the
lower half of the window (for those sales folks who just have to have
their OOO fire every time). I have see this cause loops many times when
one auto-responding mailbox sends a message to a mailbox that has this
type of auto fire rule running (if I only had a nickel.....).

Thanks,

Steve

Exchange will only send one out-of-office response to a particular
address. Apart from annoying members of this list, it should be
perfectly safe and will result in two bounces at most.

Subject: Exchange 2000 out of office

There has been a request from our business to turn on the out of office
feature to the Internet. Though we have made arguments against it, it
appears management wishes to implement this feature anyway.

From reading, there are circumstances that out of office can create a
mail
loop situation. Can anyone elaborate under which circumstances this will

happen so we can test this loop in a controlled fashion?

thanks in advance for any information you can provide.

T Stevens
