If a computer is powered off then the only way to turn it on is by physically turning it on (if it has no power then it wouldn't be able to detect lan let alone turn itself on). I'm sure you were referring to hibernation or stand-by. No offense Corey, but even that’s wrong.

You obvious can't shutdown THEN restart a computer with Outlook. You can either shutdown OR restart the computer. If a computer is powered off the only way to turn it on is to have wake-on-lan active and send the computer a "magic packet" which turns it on. I think his wording is a little misleading on this one.
