remind you to leave early for a dentist’s appointment, and even nag you to
pick up your laundry. But what about vacations or business trips where
you’re out of the office for several days in a row? Do you just let e-mail flood
the Inbox, or can Outlook help you there as well, and notify people that
you’re out of town so they won’t expect an immediate response?

Perhaps you’re a busy professional, with a nice assistant who not only keeps
track of where you need to be right now, but even stops drop-in clients at
the door so you can get there on time. As nice as that may sound, the
system tends to break down every now and then, especially when you make
an appointment and forget to tell your assistant, or vice-versa. Is there any
way for Outlook to help you keep your appointments in one place that both
of you can access and make changes to? The answer to all of these ques-
tions is a resounding, “Yes!” as you see in this chapter.

Letting the Out of Office Assistant
Handle Mail While You’re Gone
Handle Mail While You’re Gone
Every time I leave the office for even just the afternoon, I return to find my
Inbox full of messages. Some are junk, and some are important. But I don’t
know which until I take the time to go through them all. Wouldn’t it be nice
to have someone sitting in for you while you’re out, deleting the junk, for-
warding the stuff that’s important to a colleague so it gets acted on in a
timely manner, and letting everyone else know that you’re not ignoring
them, you’re just out of the office until tomorrow? Well, actually, you do
have someone who can sit in at a moment’s notice, and he’s called the Out
of Office Assistant.
