More about Microsoft Out-of-Office Replies
Microsoft Out-of-Office Replies, also known as Auto Replies, are automatic messages sent to incoming emails when you are unavailable to respond. This feature is useful for informing senders that you are out of the office, on vacation, or otherwise away from your email.
There are two main types of Microsoft Out-of-Office Replies:
Automatic reply options vary by account type and Outlook version. In classic Outlook, File is normally at the top-left, not the top-right. Check the chosen date range and internal/external audience. Do not assume a reply is sent to every message or that every POP/IMAP account supports the Exchange automatic-reply feature.
Specific Out-of-Office Replies: These replies are sent to emails from specific senders or sender groups. For example, you can create a specific reply for clients, colleagues, or family members. This allows you to personalize your messages and provide more specific information about your absence.
