An easy way to configure auto-replies for your email account (or an account that you have access to) is to use the Outlook web client.


To configure Automatic Replies:


  1. Log in to the web client at https://outlook.office.com

    Note: if you are changing the autoreply for another mailbox that you have access to, perform the steps here before proceeding.

    Click on the gear icon near the upper right corner of the window.




  2. Select View all Outlook settings
  3. Select Mail
  4. Select Automatic replies
  5. In the upper half of the screen, set the options for internal replies.

    |1| This is required to be checked for *any* Automatic Replies to be sent.
    |2| The duration is not required to be configured but is recommended.



  6. In the lower half of the screen, set the options for external replies.

    |1| This is required to be checked for *any* Automatic Replies to be sent outside of the school.
    |2| This selection is required to be configured, but it is recommended to only reply to senders in my Contacts list.


  7.  After setting the desired options, click Save.
