Automatic Replies in Office 365 Admin Center

Deleted
Not applicable

Hello,

 

I have set an automatic reply on behalf of a user in the Office 365 admin portal but cannot find how to set a time to turn off automatic replies upon their return.

 

Is there a way to do this in the admin center or will they manually need to turn off automatic replies?

 

Thanks,

Dan

Hi Dan, you can set automatic replies of users mailbox using these steps:

 

1. Login to Office 365, on Admin portal select Exchange Admin Center.
2. Click your name at the top right of the screen, then select another user.
3. Enter the user mailbox you want to set the automatic reply.
4. Once the user mailbox opened in another window, click organize email.
5. Select automatic replies and click send automatic replies (you can now configure the start date and time, end date and time).

As of now, that option is no long when i log on to the admin portal. 

Are you saying 'full access' to Email box and setup OOO on behalf of? If yes, may go to user Email box to disable

It looks like the new "View another mailbox" in the Exchange Admin Center no longer has the function available to edit Automatic-Replies

The only settings available now are to edit basic things like signature and message format.  How do we get back to the old "View another mailbox" screen?

You can Setup Autresponce now from admin center.

Admin Center>>>Active Users>>put the email id in Search Bar. 

Click on the Email ID >>>right side Panel >>> Mail Tab

there is Automatic Reples. >>> Manage Automatic replies.

 

 

Yes, we know we can do it in this manner. The reason we use the "View another mailbox" feature is so that we can set the Start and End times for these signatures without having to manually switch it off later. And using the PowerShell method is bit of a pain.
