아웃룩에서 자동회신 보내기 auto response email exchange 2007

Setting up an Auto Reply rule using Microsoft Outlook

Creating a Microsoft Outlook Auto Reply rule is a feature that is accessible through Exchange and Outlook. This feature allows you to notify anyone sending you e-mail that you are out of the office, both inside the GTU and External email recipients. So, if you need to notify senders outside the GTU, use this method!

When someone sends you an e-mail, the Out of Office Assistant automatically responds to the e-mail with a message indicating that you are away from the office. The notice can display any text that you choose to send; including the dates and times you are out of the office and any additional information, such as who to report to with questions.

Note: Unlike Outlook's Out of Office Assistant, which remembers which senders it Auto Replied to, creating an Auto Reply rule within Outlook will repeatedly send a message back to the sender for every message they address to you!

Out of Office replies and external emails - security guidance.

As external emails now receive an out of office reply, your absence details will be accessible to third parties outside of the GTU. Theoretically, this information in the out of office reply could be cross referenced with information, publicly available, to determine personal details associated with the email address, such as phone numbers, home addresses and so on.

We recommend the following when composing an out of office reply:

• Never say specifically you are going on holiday

• Never include your home address

• Never include personal contact details, such as home phone number, mobile number etc

• Keep the information generic, and whenever possible, redirect enquiries to a colleague.
