• If you have multiple email accounts set up on your Mac, you'll need to set up auto-reply for each account separately.
• Auto-reply messages will be sent to all incoming emails that match the criteria you set (e.g., specific sender, subject, or keywords).
• You can customize the auto-reply message to include variables like the sender's name, email address, or a custom message.
• Auto-reply messages will be sent in the same format as your regular emails, so make sure to include your name, email address, and any other relevant information.
