Out of Office inbox rule in Outlook

Hi

We have Exchange 2016 environment in our organization.

I wonder if it is possible to distinguish whether a given rule in Outlook was created in Inbox rules/alerts or in Out of Office?
Is it possible to delete only the rules connected with Out of Office?
Thank you in advance for your answers.

 

Regards

Pit

  • The OOF rules are hidden, but they will show up when you do

    Get-InboxRule -Mailbox <ID> -IncludeHidden

    The internal OOF has the subject Microsoft.Exchange.OOF.InternalSenders.Global
    The external OOF has the subject Microsoft.Exchange.OOF.AllExternalSenders.Global

    You cannot manage them using Set-InboxRule; for that you need Get-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration and Set-MailboxAutoReplyConfiguration.
