But, you won’t have access to your email while on holiday. What do you do? Well, if you’re running an Outlook.com, Exchange or Office 365 email account, we have you covered. First off, you’ll want to hover over the tab marked ‘file’ and select ‘automatic replies’.
The next step: In the automatic replies box, select ‘send automatic replies’. A handy tip: Set a date range for your automatic replies otherwise you’ll need to manually turn them off. Step three: On the ‘inside my organisation’ tab, type the response you would like to appear while you are away.
A few funny suggestions will be available at the end of this article.
A handy tip: Sending automatic replies to ‘anyone outside my organisation’ will also send automatic replies to each and every newsletter you receive, such as spam, junk email etc And voila, you are ready to go on that much needed break.
Funny messages: My brain is fried and although we value your business, my spouse was just about ready to have me assassinated if I didn’t go on this much needed break. Should this be an emergency, please contact my spouse at: ‘insert number here’ Instead of punishing me with a lump of coal for being a naughty person this year, Santa decided to take over my email and lock me away with my family on a island somewhere in the Mediterranean. He said that should I manage to escape from the island, Rudolph would come find me and drag me back all the way. PS. Santa is out delivering presents and will not be monitoring this email. We are a family business and although we value your support tremendously, we believe that family comes first. Go spend some quality time with your family this festive season. I’ll be doing the same.
