Your automatic reply settings cannot be displayed because the server is currently unavailable. -
Description
Users cannot access "Out Of Office" settings through "Outlook." The following error occurs when attempting view the settings from Outlook - "Your automatic reply settings cannot be displayed because the server is currently unavailable."
For example, user accounts are migrated to the target with QMMAD. The users logon to their workstation with target account credentials. User then launches Outlook with source credentials and attempts to view their settings. While Outlook can access mail they cannot see their Out of Office settings.

Cause
This problem occurs because the Exchange CAS server uses the credentials that you used to log on to Windows instead of the credentials that you used to log on to the Exchange mailbox. Because the Windows credentials do not match the mailbox credentials, the CAS server returns a "500" error code. However, the "500" error is not an authentication error code. Therefore, no other authentication methods are tried. -
