Out of Office Message

You can set up an Out of Office message to autoreply when you are out.

• The auto-reply message is sent to each recipient once in a seven-day period, regardless of how many messages that person sends you during the designated period.

To set up an automated email reply, simply follow these instructions:

• Navigate to https://mail.gseis.ucla.edu/
• Log into your mail account by entering your username and password.

• Click the Preferences tab.

• Click on Mail.

• Scroll down to the Receiving Messages area, as shown below.
• Check Send auto-reply message.

• Enter the message to be sent in the text box.
• You can optionally set a start and/or end date for your autoreply.  If you don't specify a start date it will take effect immediately.  If you don't specify an end date you will need to return to this page and uncheck Send auto-reply message.
• Check Start Date.  You should set this to the first day you will be out of the office.  The autoreply will start at 12:01 am on that date.
• Click the triangle to open the calendar, and select the start date for the away message.
• Check End Date. You should set this to the day you return to the office. The autoreply will stop at 12:01 am on that date.
• Click the triangle to open the calendar, and select the end date for the away message.
• Click Save in the upper left to save your changes.
