Automatic Reply to sender with Exchange Online
Hello everyone,
I need to create a rule for a user that will respond to the sender in Exchange Online. When I go to the Exchange Online setup, I don't have the option to reply to the sender. I tried to configure Outlook with a rule but Outlook must be open for it to work. Is there a solution?Thank you
You don't need to have Outlook running for that to work, unless you select some specific actions. And you can also configure the rule programmatically via EWS, see https://www.michev.info/blog/post/5773/configure-an-auto-reply-rule-for-microsoft-365-mailboxes-via-ews

There's no good way to create an automatic reply as a rule in EXO. The best option is to use a Power Automate Flow, but that might require additional licensing
