Tips and Variations

• You can customize the auto-response message to include additional information, such as your return date or contact information for someone who can assist with your work while you're away.
• You can also set up multiple auto-response messages for different situations, such as a "vacation" message and a "sick leave" message.
• If you're using Exchange Server, you can set up an auto-response message that will be sent to all recipients, regardless of whether they're inside or outside your organization.
• If you're using Outlook on the web, you can set up an auto-response message by going to the "Settings" icon (looks like a gear) and then clicking on "View all Outlook settings" > "Mail" > "Automatic replies".
