Can I have out of office reply on my email?

[eyeshade]

Still getting to grips with things or not as the case may be! I have Outlook Express on my emails and cannot find an out of office reply on my toolbar for my emails. I know AOL has it but I can't find it. Does it exist does anyone know?

I was wondering that too. I have Windows XP and broadband and it doesn't seem to cover that. Anyway looks much, much too complicated.

I don't NEED it - just annoyed that I don't have it.

Thankd sp1814.

Oooh. Not as simple as it first looks and not sure if I have outlook 2002. (our system is set that if you don't have special clearance, you can't even cough!!) Anyone think we worked for the M15!!
I will however deffinitely have a bash and see what happens. Thanks es

eyeshade - I worked for a civil service department worse than MI5 - DWP/BA/DSS or whatever they are called now.

Even changing the size of the text was frowned upon. I have concentration problems and large text seems to help.

I don't know WHY we can't have this system. I would like to personalise my email system - and it is my own home computer.

Wolfe, me too, I want it on Outlook at the touch of a button, like block sender or making it an urgent message, I have just been away from the office for two days and come back to 800 emails, (some of which the spammer has not spammed but nevertheless, a lot of faffing around) Lets hope Outlook can put it on in the future. Luckily I can change my computer as and when I like but at the end of the day it saves people time and time is money! or so they say. I will try the link out and see if my skills allow me to get round it but don't hold out much hope!

Ta DA!!!! I've done it...!!! I went onto the link, did the business and set it in my New Mail Rule, it only works doesn't it!! Well I never did, I am so proud I can't think straight, thanks everyone!!
