Creating a vacation message
If you are out of station or out-of-office and want to send an auto-reply to the messages you received during this time period, then you can create a vacation message in your own language. When anyone will send a message to you, he will receive a personalized message as a reply from your side.
To configure the vacation message:
- Open ‘Preferences’.
- Go to the ‘Mail’ tab.
- Receiving messages option, click on ‘Auto-reply’ message.
- Enter the text you want to get displayed in the text box. You can type message like ‘I am on leave, I am out of station or out of office. Don’t forget to mention the return date.
- Set start and end dates.
- Click to save.
Saving sent messages
In the sent folder, you will find a copy of all emails you sent so far from your email account. You can delete them anytime. By default, messages will keep on saving in the sent folder. To change the preference, open ‘Settings’.
Changing the default time zone
By default, the time zone displayed in the inbox folder is according to the current location where you are staying. It will keep you updated with the upcoming appointments and activities if any.
If you are using a standard client, the time zone of your computer will not be taken as reference for the message received in the inbox folder or any calendar appointments. For time zone settings, you have to hover to the ‘Preferences’ from the general tab. On the other hand, if you are using an advanced Web client, then your computer time zone will be used as the timestamp for all incoming as well as outgoing messages. There is no need to configure it manually.
