I haven't noticed an option like that if you're just logging in through the web version.
I know for a fact there are two separate tabs, and once you set things up for people inside the organization, it just automatically applies those same rules to everyone outside the organization.
They really ought to be two different containers, but they aren't.
The way it works is that whatever you define in one gets applied to the other automatically.
I'm messing around with my Microsoft 365 settings trying to set up an out-of-office auto-reply, but I have this very specific requirement where I want people outside the organization to get the message while keeping it quiet for anyone internal.
The problem is that whenever I toggle the option to reply to everyone outside the domain, the system just applies it globally, treating my coworkers the same as some random person from a different company, and I can't seem to find a way to decouple the two groups.
Does anyone have a workaround or a clever idea on how to split these permissions?
thanks
So, I’ve got two different email accounts set up here in Microsoft Outlook 2013.
The automatic reply feature used to work perfectly fine by filtering responses so that anyone from my own domain wouldn't get an auto-reply, while everyone else outside the organization would.
In the settings, there's clearly an option to toggle replies for people inside versus outside the organization, and it worked flawlessly before, but now for some reason, it won't let me separate them; if I turn on the out-of-office reply for external contacts, my internal colleagues end up getting the response too.
Since these accounts are essentially merged into the same inbox, how am I supposed to configure this so that only the outsiders receive the reply?
Thanks for bearing with me, because honestly, half the time I can't even make sense of my own thoughts.
