How to Set Up an Autoresponder (Vacation Message) in Webuzo
An autoresponder sends an automatic reply to anyone who emails you — ideal for holidays, busy periods, or simply letting people know you have received their message and will respond soon.
Create an autoresponder in Webuzo
- Log in to your Webuzo Enduser Panel.
- Open the Email section and click Autoresponders (or Auto Reply).
- Choose the email account the reply should come from.
- Fill in a subject and the message you want senders to receive.
- Optionally set a start and end time so it switches off by itself.
- Click Add (or Save).
Writing a good away message
Keep it short, warm and useful. A solid template:
Thanks for your email. I’m away until 15 March and will reply as soon as I’m back. For anything urgent, please contact my colleague at colleague@yourdomain.com. — Your Name
Give people an alternative contact and a return date, and avoid sharing that your home or office is empty.
Frequently asked questions
Will it reply to the same person over and over?
No. Autoresponders include a built-in interval so repeat senders are not flooded with the same message within a short time.
Can I schedule it in advance?
Yes — set the start and end times when you create it, and Webuzo turns it on and off automatically.
Should I use an autoresponder or a forwarder?
They do different jobs. An autoresponder replies to senders; a forwarder passes mail to another address. You can use both together.
