Combining forwards and autoresponders

In version 2.3 and higher, if you want your mailbox to work as forward and mail autoresponder at the same time, you can give forward, mailbox and autoresponder the same name within one mail domain. In this case, your mailbox will forward all incoming email to another address and send responses to senders.

To configure your autoresponder, click its name in the list of mail resources. You will see the list of its properties on the right:

• Local: local mail resource name without domain part.
• Message: a response to incoming mail;
• Copy To: email message where copies will be sent.
• Delete: click this icon to delete the mailbox.
• Trouble Ticket: report troubles with the autoresponder.

To edit the message text:

1. Click the name of the autoresponder.
2. On the properties page, click the Edit icon next to the Message field.
3. A message box appears. Here you can edit the text or enter a new one, change subject and Copy to email.
