We have two users with Vista that are not able to use Out of office assistant from Outllok 2007. All Windows XP Users with Outlook 2007 are able to use it. The following error is displayed "Your Out of Office settings cannot be displayed, because the server is currently unavailable. Try again later." Everything else works fine (autodiscover etc.). As read through different posts found on the web this might be related to our domain structure as clients reside in a different domain than the Exchange server. The question is: Why is it working on XP Clients but not on Vista Clients???
Verified that the problem has to do with our domain structure by checking the IIS-Logs. Users save the password for the Exchange domain when Outlook prompts for username password to connect to the mailbox. Obviously XP is using the saved account to connect to exchange. If the account information is not saved out of office will not work on XP Clients. Vista only connects with the client domain login to start requests on the server though the user does not need to enter username and password to connect to the mailbox?! Is there a way to change this behaviour without using "run as" which would result in other porblems (e.g. access to archive.pst on Local domain file server) "tw2003" wrote: > We have two users with Vista that are not able to use Out of office assistant > from Outllok 2007.
