How to setup an automatic email reply in gmail [Setup your Vacation reply]

If you'll be away from your Gmail account, like on a vacation or without access to the Internet, you can set up a vacation responder to automatically notify people that you won't be able to get back to them right away. When people send you a message, they'll receive an email response containing what you've written in your vacation auto reply.

Set up your vacation reply

• Open Gmail.

• In the top right, click Settings.

• Scroll down to the "Vacation responder" section.

• Select Vacation responder on.

• Fill in the date range, subject, and message.

• Under your message, check the box if you only want your contacts to see your vacation reply.

• At the bottom of the page, click Save Changes.

 

Note: If you have a Gmail signature, it will be shown at the bottom of your vacation response.
