Month: March 2008

I saw Andy posted this (http://telnetport25.wordpress.com/2008/03/16/quick-ish-tip-exchange-2007-setting-oof-for-users-via-powershell-2/) today and wanted to share my script.

It uses the same dll from Glen(EWSOofUtil.dll) to open the specified users mailbox and Enable/Disable a users Out Off Office Setting. This in theory fixes an Issue with Exchange 2007 and Outlook 2003/Blackberry Enterprise Server

The script also checks to see if a user has a legacy account set as Associated External. If it has it removes it and writes to a log.  It does this as the “Super Account” I was using could open the OoO if this was set!

EWSOofUtil.dll is provided by Glen Scales (http://gsexdev.blogspot.com)

The script can also be used in a pipeline.
