Article ID: 840158 - Last Review: October 25, 2007 - Revision: 1.5 You cannot restrict certain automatic responses to the Internet based on administrative groups in Exchange 2000 Server or in Exchange Server 2003After you migrate your Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5
organization to Microsoft Exchange 2000 Server or to Microsoft Exchange Server
2003, you can no longer configure the following Exchange Server 5.5
functionalities on a per-administrative group basis:
- Disable Out Of Office responses to the
Internet
- Disable Automatic Replies to the
Internet
- Disable sending Display names to the
Internet
In Exchange Server 5.5, you can configure these settings by
modifying the Internet Mail Service properties on each Exchange computer.
However, in later versions of Exchange, you must configure these settings in
the InternetMessageFormatName
Properties dialog box, where
InternetMessageFormatName is the name of the object
that represents your Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) domain. In Exchange
2000 or in Exchange 2003, these settings affect your whole Exchange
organization. To resolve this issue, create a custom transport event sink
to apply the global message type restriction settings on a per-administrative
group basis instead of globally. For additional information about how
to create an event sink, view the documentation that is contained in the
Exchange Server 2003 Exchange SDK Development Tools. To obtain the Exchange SDK
Development Tools, visit the following Microsoft Web site: For additional information about how to write managed event sinks
for SMTP and for transport events, visit the following Microsoft Web sites: To work around this issue, divide your Exchange Server 5.5
organization into multiple Exchange 2000 or Exchange Server 2003 organizations.
In this scenario, because these message settings are organization-wide
settings, you must use more than one Active Directory directory service forest.
Alternatively, if you have a mixed-mode organization, you can keep one Exchange
Server 5.5 computer in each site to configure these message settings.
In Exchange Server 5.5, you can restrict the following
features on a per-site basis:
- Disable Out Of Office responses to the
Internet
- Disable Automatic Replies to the
Internet
- Disable sending Display names to the
Internet
To configure these settings, follow these steps:
- Start the Microsoft Exchange Administrator
program.
- Expand your site, expand Configuration,
and then click Internet Mail Service
(Servername) in the right pane.
- On the File menu, click
Properties.
- Click the Internet Mail tab, and then
click Advanced options.
- Click to select the check boxes for the features that you
want to enable.
To configure the corresponding settings in Exchange 2000 Server
or in Exchange Server 2003, follow these steps:
- Start the Exchange System Manager program.
- Expand Global Settings, and then click
Internet Message Formats.
- In the right pane, double-click your Internet message
formats object. For example, double-click Default.
- Click the Advanced tab, and then click to
select one or more of the following check boxes:
Allow out of office responses Allow automatic replies Allow automatic forward Allow delivery reports Allow non-delivery reports Preserve sender's display name on message
These settings affect your whole Exchange 2000 or Exchange 2003
organization. You cannot specify these settings on a particular SMTP virtual
server or SMTP connector. For example:
- If you right-click your SMTP virtual server, click
Properties, click the General tab, click
Advanced, click Edit, and then click to clear
the Apply Filter check box, message filtering is disabled for
this particular SMTP virtual server. However, out-of-office replies are not
disabled.
- If you view the properties of your SMTP connector, no
dialog boxes appear for you to restrict the passage of information on an
administrative group basis or on a per-server basis.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
