MailFai

Vacation responder

The vacation responder answers mail automatically while you are away, as Gmail's does.

  1. Go to Settings → Vacation (or, while it is on, press Vacation settings above the list).
  2. Turn on Vacation responder on, choose the first day and, if you like, the last day, and write the subject and the message.
  3. Press Save. From the first day, people who write to you get your answer, once every four days each. After the last day it stops by itself; End now above the list stops it at once.
  • Mailing lists, newsletters, automatic mail and no-reply addresses never get an answer, and neither does spam.
  • Only send a response to people at … answers only colleagues at your own domain.
  • Tizfai mailboxes: the mail server answers, even when MailFai is closed. If you also have a vacation response in SOGo, turn that one off: only one can answer, and MailFai says so under Settings → Vacation.
  • Other providers (Gmail, Outlook.com, Yahoo, iCloud …): MailFai answers as new mail arrives.
  • With several accounts, each has its own vacation responder.
