Automatic Reply 

Use

If you are going to be absent for any period of time or you want to reduce your workload, you can create an automatic reply which is automatically sent in response to all incoming messages. The automatic reply is sent to each sender only once, after the first message is received. If further documents are received from the same user, no automatic reply is sent. In this way, the sender is informed that no reply to the matter in question will be forthcoming during a certain time period. When the automatic reply is sent, the message in your inbox is not viewed, answered, or completed. You must still process the message as required by the attributes.

The automatic reply is sent to internal and external senders. In your private office settings, you can specify that an automatic reply is not sent to external recipients.
