Out Of Office on Outlook 2007 and Exchange 2007 is not working...
When I try to change the Out of office settings I get the following error.
"Your out of office settings cannot be displayed, because the server is currently unavailable"
I've already checked sembee's website (http://www.sembee.co.uk/archive/2007/01/21/34.aspx) and "normally" my autodiscovery is working fine...
At least when I do a "Test E-mail autoconfiguration" Everything seems to be ok, but for the OOF the internal servername is used instead of the external name? Is this correct? And what else could be wrong?

What happens if you view the OOF through OWA (webmail)?

Hi
Just to add my two penneth worth.
I have all my users surfing through Squid Proxy. If you remove the user from using the proxy the Out of Office works, so does the Test Configuration from the outlook icon. MY Exch 2007 server is almost default out of the box with 50 mailboxes on. It has had no tweaks with regards to Autodiscovery service.
I assume 8 out of 10 times this will be the problem.
Therefore i added into the Internet Proxy Settings via group policy the following entry:
LAN Settings > Advanced > Exceptions > *CTTG3* as CTTG3 is the servername of my Exch2007 server.
This has fixed the problem for ALL users in my ExchOrg.
Regards
Anthony

This may not apply to the OP's original problem, but I was having the same issue, but with just my external Outlook 2007 users. Connecting via HTTP/RPC. When I would do the "Test E-mail AutoConfiguration..." on the remote PC, it would fail connecting to the path: https://autodiscover.domainname.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml. All I had to do was create an A-record entry on our external DNS that mapped autodiscover.domainname.co
