This tutorial will show you how to create an Autoresponder.
An autoresponder is also known as an auto-reply or out-of-office reply. It will automatically send a message letting any email senders know that you are not responding to email temporarily.
You can create and enable an Autoresponder for any address in the Control Panel.
Step 1: Click on the Accounts icon
Step 2: Click on the blue email address you want to create an autoresponder for
Step 3: Complete the Autoresponder section:
1) Enable Autoresponder: put a check in this box
2) Subject: type a subject
3) Message: type a message
4) Mail Forwarding (optional): You can forward incoming emails to another user while you are out of the office. By default, you will receive a copy of all new email messages in your inbox and a copy of it will be forwarded to the email address set here. Delete Message on Forward (optional): If you check this box, the system will delete all new incoming messages in your inbox and forward it to the other user (such as for maternity leave).
Step 4: Click Save
Your Autoresponder is now enabled.
Don't forget to Disable Autoresponder when you are back in the office.
Return to the Mail Account Properties page for the email address.
