Auto responders are perfect when you are on vacation or out-of-office.
However, please remember it is bad net etiquette to use auto responders on a permanent basis.
Auto responders may not work with all email account types and client software, as auto responders need to avoid a infinite loop where 2 autoresponders start bouncing off each other - this could potentially happen if you have set an auto responder on your email software as well as here.
To set up or remove an auto responder:
- Go to the Domains/Email tab at the top of the CMS.
- Underneath your domains, you will see any mailboxes that are setup.
- Click Mailbox Setup Instructions/Change Password next to the relevant email account.
- You will see this area on the lower right hand side of the next screen.
- Tick Enable Autoresponder, add your email subject line, and email response message.
- Press Save Changes.
- It may take some time for this to take effect.
