Tips:
- You can customize the auto-response message to fit your needs.
- Make sure to set the dates correctly to ensure the auto-response is sent only during your out-of-office period.
- If you have multiple email addresses, you may need to set up the auto-response for each address separately.
- You can also use Gmail's canned responses feature to create a reusable auto-response message.
By following these steps, you'll be able to set up an out-of-office auto-response in Google Mail to keep your contacts informed while you're away.
