Trying to bypass the 'once only' rule in setting up an out of office message,
but cannot seem to find the way. I have Microsoft Outlook 2003. The out of
office assistant shows only the statement 'AutoReply only once to each sender
with the following text', which it appears cannot be changed.

I need to enable an out of office message to go out to all who send me an
email, regardless of whether they send me multiple emails. At the moment,
most of my customers delete the initial out of office email, so when they
send me a second/third email they do not receive any further messages. The
initial out of office email contains the required alternative contact details.
 
what if you bypass the once only rule, and one of your out of office replies
goes to someone who has just bypassed their once only rule?

Think about it.

There's no way to bypass that.

Then you'll need to use a rule. See this:

Brian--Outlook Rules have the same limitation. Is there a way to dump the list of those that have received replies, without re-starting Outlook? (Is it a file saved somewhere?)

I have the same issue, and would like to reset the list of folks once every afternoon, and expect daily (morning) replies from everyone. I also am not at my desk often, and would like to automate this process with a macro, if possible...
