This tutorial will cover how to create an email auto-responder for a user within Virtualmin.

An email auto-responder is an automated reply that will be sent to anyone sending an email to the account.

It assumes you have first logged into Virtualmin.

  1. Choose the domain you would like to add the email account to. You can do that by selecting the domain name from the drop-down box on the top-left.

  2. Choose Edit Users.

  3. Click the name of the account you would like to add the auto-responder to.

  4. Click Mail forwarding settings to view the auto-responder text area.

  5. Click the checkbox next to Send automatic reply

  6. In the text area beneath Send automatic reply, you can now enter the text that will be included in the auto-responder. If you'd like to use HTML, begin the message with <HTML>

  7. Click Save.

The above auto-responder will be used until you un-check "Send automatic reply".
