Hi, is there a how-to for setting up a rule like this? To answer you question: It depends. Sometimes I receive auto response like "Hey I won't be at my desk for the next 30 mins because I went to get some launch." No email should be that important that one cannot wait like a day for an replay. If it is that important one should just use the phone. On the other side: If the recipient is that important he should hire a secretary or something like that. Going to a place without internet or on vacation for weeks, ok it is correct to inform the sender, that the email will not be read until whenever. kh
