Out of Office Assistant now working.

I have Outlook 2007
Exchange 2010 (recently migrated from Exchange 2003)

When I open outlook - tools - Out of Office Assistant
I get the error message " Your Out of OFfice settings cannot be displayed, because the server is currently unavailable"

The error is on all workstations since the move to Exchange 2010.
Why?

What happened to the old server?

Decommissioned.

Was it Exchange uninstalled from it first? Was it removed from the Exchange organization?

Exported PST from old exchange , import to new.
Old exchange server was taken off line, new server brought in. Reconnect PCs to new server.
Recreated AD on new server, no migration from old to new.

So new Active Directory domain and new Exchange organization?
So were new user and mail profiles created on the workstations for the users?

We used Profwiz to use the old profiles on the new server.

I think you are right, let me check....

If you had issues with the OL profile pointing to wrong server, it wouldn't have even connected for you.

My best bet is that you are facing an issue with Autodiscover.

Check the output for Test Email Autoconfiguration Use the link and uncheck Guessmart checkboxes.

Please provide your result in screenshot.

It turned out that our dhcp server was not issuing the AD server as the first DNS.
Thanks for your help.
