When I activate out of office for one of my users, out of office replies are sent to internal users but not external users. &nbsp;I emailed from my hotmail account a user that had out of office enabled. &nbsp;Message was recieved OK and an out of office reply sent. &nbsp;However reply is never received at my hotmail account, in message tracking it says &quot;SMTP Message submitted to categorizer&quot; and does not go past this.<br />
Any help would be appreciated. &nbsp;Thanks.
