Autoreply to all messages

J

Hi,

I would like to set up a rule where all messages sent to a
generic mailbox automatically receive a generic reply. I
was hoping to use the Out of Office Assistant but I can't
figure out how to turn off the rule that only replies to
each sender once. Thanks!

Why would you want to tell each sender EVERY time they send an email that
you are out of the office? What a waste of bandwidth!

Well - this is not recommended. The reason Out of Office replies only once
per sender is to prevent mail loops (imagine what happens when autoreply
meets autoreply, and generates messages ad nauseum...).

Possible perhaps to set up autoreply rules using a message using a template
such that the sender is one that doesn't accept mail? Such as an empty
distribution group to which you have send as rights? To be honest, I'm not
sure if this will work; I've played with it somewhat and have never been
able to get it to perform as I wish.
