Description:

This sample Exchange Server 5.5 scripting agent is an auto responder that replies to all incoming messages with a customized message body. It responds to the message originator only and ignores delivery reports, non-delivery reports and "Out of Office" messages. This is especially useful if you want to build a customer support mailbox that replies to all incoming requests immediately without creating message loops.

Known Issues:

Don't hide the mailbox or the public folder from the Global Address List (GAL), because the Microsoft Exchange Server Scripting and Routing script will fail to run if the mailbox or the public folder is not visible in the GAL.

Microsoft Exchange Server Scripting and Routing scripts are not running synchronously. It can take up to 60 seconds before the script is fired.

Prerequisites:

Make sure that Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5 with the Microsoft Event Service is installed and running properly.

Installation:

See script homepage for detailed installation process description.
