Hi,

I have created a distributed group which have to send a auto reply when receiving a mail. I know that it is impossible to send a auto reply within a distributed group, but following a guide I have created a mail account called “noreply”.

In outlook I have created a rule in the “noreply” account where I chose following conditions:

Send to a person or distributed list (where I selected my distributed group)

Then to specify what to do with that message I selected

Have server reply using a specific message

I’ve created my message and saved it.

But when I try to write an e-mail to the distributed group it doesn’t send back the reply message.

Does anyone knows what I’m doing wrong?

Sincerely
Mestika
