Will MMS allow users to modify the auto-reply settings? Any other options to
let users do this on their own?

> - in ACGI Dispatcher, go File -> Configure Suffix Mappings...

> Now at the browser, type:

> If it works, now try login with:

> It costs you $25 for MMS and another $15 for ACGI Dispatcher, but then
