Setting specific time for OOA to work

[DavidF]

I am using outlook 2007 and I need to setup the OOA to send an auto-reply
between the hours of 5:00pm and 8:00am. Is there a way to do that? I was
researching this in MS Office Online for Outlook 2007 and there was a help
article called Automatically reply to messages with the Out of Office
Assistant. In it, it describes how to do this type of reply. But here is
the problem with that, I open the OOA, (I am on an exchange server), and a
dialog box opens with the
"in the office", "out of office", outbound messages boxes, and the Rules
boxes. This article says there are more options but I don't see them. For
example in step 2 it says "to click on Send out of office auto-replies ", in
step 3 it says "If you want, select the Only send during this time range
check box to schedule when your out of office replies are active. If you do
not specify a start and end time, auto-replies will be sent until you click
Do not send Out of Office auto-replies".my delema here is those options are
not in that box. Any thoughts or advice please? Is there an update I am not
aware of? I have SP1.

Thank you in advance.

Are you running against an Exchange 2007 server?

Brian, thank you for responding. I checked and we are currently using
Exchange 2003 and I now realize, that alone just killed that time option. We
are suppose to upgrade to 2007 in the not too distant future.
