Out of Office Rule

[Gary Ryan]

I am running Office Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager, SP2. Until
the last product update, I could start a new rule to send a reply to all
emails my computer received, with a plain text user template stating that I
am out of the offfice. (This was done without using an exchange server.)

After the latest update, I can no longer send an out of office reply, like I
have been doing for years. Now, every time, when it goers to send a reply
there is an Outlook error message.

Has anyone else had a similar problem and know of a fix???? I travel a bit
and want to have email senders know I am not here. And, I do not want to have
to buy a server to do it.

Thanks.
