| Adding an Automatic Response From the Options and Styles... menu, select
AutoResponder under My Options.
Use this page to set up an automatic response so that each time you receive
mail, a prepared message is sent back to the sender. This feature is activated
when you enter text in the Message box. (In other words, if the
Message box is empty, no automatic response is sent.)
-
Use Main as
the mailbox if you want all incoming mail to receive the automatic response.
(If you want the automated response to be activated only for a particular
mailbox, select the mailbox name.)
-
If, in addition to
sending an automatic response, you want to forward incoming messages to
another user ID, enter a mail address. For example, you can forward messages
to your assistant, or to another mailbox besides Main (by entering the
forwarding address as yourUser ID-othermailbox).
-
In the Message
box, enter the subject and message to be returned to all senders who
send mail to this sub-area. The first line of the body of the message is used
as the subject line for the automatic response. It must be less than 80
characters. The rest of the message will be sent as the body of the automatic
response. It must be less than 1024 characters.
-
Click the Save
button.
Note: To prevent automatic responses to bulk
mailers, an automatic response is not sent if the original message
contains the Precedence: bulk header. To prevent automatic responses to
list server mailing lists, automatic responses are not sent if the
original message contains imailsrv in the mail address.
Editing an Automatic
Response
To edit an existing automatic response, select the
mailbox (usually Main), make any necessary changes, and click the Update
button.
