The Out of office Assistant enables you to set up an automatic reply to emails received during periods that you are not checking email.  You may configure the settings to send the automatic response to some or all of the people who send you messages.  The configuration features include:

•      Schedule Out of Office automatic replies in advance.  Schedule the begin and end dates and times that the auto-replies should be sent.

•      Send auto-replies to people inside or outside your organization. You can also customize the message that is sent to each.

Note:  Please note that Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 does not support the Out of Office feature.  This preference option will not appear on your device unless you are synchronizing with Exchange 2007 or 2010.

 

1.  Open NotifySync and press the menu button.

2.  Select Preferences > Out of Office Assistant.

3.  Check the Send Out of Office auto-replies box.

4.  If you wish to set in advance the time period during which auto-replies are sent, check Send Out of Office auto-replies only during this time period, then define the begin and end dates and times.  (This setting is optional.  If left unchecked, auto-replies will begin to send as soon as you save the changes and will not end until you manually disable Out of Office replies.)
