Another possibility with the powershell command-lets in Exchange 2010 is to change the "Out of Office" aka "Mailbox Auto Reply" settings.
The "Get-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration" and "Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration" can be used to view the current auto reply settings and change the message etc that is sent. You can also have seperate internal and external out of office messages. View the current auto reply settings for a mailbox:Here there has been no message set.
Get-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration "andy barnes"
RunspaceId : b1531019-f59a-45aa-9176-3033ca169444 AutoReplyState : Disabled EndTime : 03/08/2010 17:00:00 ExternalAudience : All ExternalMessage : InternalMessage : StartTime : 02/08/2010 17:00:00 MailboxOwnerId : domain.local/New York/Andy Barnes Identity : domain.local/New York/Andy Barnes IsValid : True Set the auto reply settings for a mailbox:With seperate internal and external messages
Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration -identity "andy barnes" -AutoReplyState enabled -EndTime 03/08/2010 -InternalMessage "I am currently out of the office on until Tuesday 4rd August due to
partying and so forth. Please could all enquiries be directed to ext 123 and emails be sent tosomewhere@domain.local" -ExternalMessage "I am currently out of the office on until Tuesday 4rd August. Please could all enquiries be directed to ext 123 and emails be sent to somewhere@domain.local" View the current auto reply settings for a mailbox:Here you can see the message we have just set. Notice the internal message is different to the external message so that you can include further details to colleagues, that you might not want external contacts to know.
