Hi,
I can't this to work, either using Outlook which gives an error about
the server being unavailable, or from within OWA and setting it from
there. Where can I troubleshoot this please.
SBS 2008 Standard. Exchange 2007 SP2
Thanks
Simon

1. Run the tests from www.testexchangeconnectivity.com. There is a specific
test for Out Of Office (but it requires an empty inbox, so setup a test
account).

2. Secondly, the HTTPS URL that Outlook uses for retrieving OOF is provided
by the autodiscover service. If the OOFUrl provided by autodiscover is not
valid, OOF will fail. At www.testexchangeconnectivity.com, there is another
test available for autodiscover, that you can also try.

If you have access to the affected client computer, Outlook 2007 has a
builtin "Test E-Mail Autoconfiguration" tool. To access it, hold down the
right Ctrl key on the keyboard while right-clicking the Outlook icon in the
notification area and then click Test E-Mail Autoconfiguration. You can read
about this and troubleshooting autodiscover on the SBS Blog below.

3. What is the OOF URL? It should be something like
https://mail.domain.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx Try to browse that URL in IE. Do
you get an error or does it bring up the asmx page?
