How do I setup an Out Of Office Autoreply on Astutium WebMail
Adding an Out-Of-Office or other Auto-Reply is a quick and simple task using the Astutium WebMail
Note we STRONGLY RECOMMEND that you do *NOT* use 'Out of Office' (OOO) type options - for over 20 years they have been considered of no practical use and are considered a strong cyber-security risk.
If you do insist on having an OOO we suggest you read this before setting it up Your Detailed OOO/autoresponder Could Be Putting Your Organisations Security At Risk
and What Your OOO Message Tells Attackers
before setup and to advise you on what not to reveal
- Login to your Astutium WebMail at http://{yourdomain}/webmail

- Select your current AutoReply or click the Plus (+) to add a new one
- Pick incoming mail and choose 'All Messages'
- In the dropdown/menu select 'Reply With Message'
- For the Message Body ... type the reply/message you want to send send on your OOO - noting the secirity risks and the out of office reply
- DO NOT put your usual signature in the Message Body - valid recipient systems will strip it off, and only Spammers and Scammers will see it

- DO NOT put anything in the Additional Emails section
