Overview:
An "autoresponder" is an automated email message that is sent in response to receiving an email, perfect for use when you're out of the office for a while or no longer accepting emails at a certain address.
Method:
- Log into your cPanel account.
- Navigate to the "Autoresponders" tool, in the "Email" section.
- In the "Autoresponders" tool, click on the "Add Autoresponder" button.
- In the "Add Autoresponder" page, configure the autoresponder as required.
- Character Set: By default it's utf-8 and is usually best to keep it at this unless you know you require an alternative character set.
- Interval: The number of hours to wait between responses to the same email address, or zero to always respond.
- Email: The email address user (the name before the @ symbol, do not include the domain name here)
- Domain: Select the domain from the drop-down list.
- From: The name of the sender in the message sent by the autoresponder.
- Subject: The subject line of the email sent by the autoresponder.
- Body: The content of the email sent by the autoresponder.
- Select the time frame you require in the Start and Stop options. By default, they will be set to start immediately and to never stop.
- Click on the "Modify" button to save the autoresponder.
Additionally, you can also edit or delete an autoresponder by clicking on the corresponding icon next to the autoresponder.
