Creating autoresponders in DirectAdmin

Autoresponders are email robots that reply to all incoming messages with a standard outgoing message. Autoresponder will reply to all messages received, regardless of their content. For example, some companies keep updated price lists on an autoresponder. When a customer sends an email to [email protected] they will immediately receive a new price list in their email inbox.

 

To set up an autoresponder, you must first have access to the “E-Mail Menu” of the control panel. Then click on “Autoresponders” and then on “Create New Autoresponder”.

 

 

First, choose an autoresponder name.

 

Note: You cannot create an autoresponder if the username is already being used by a POP3 account, forwarder, or mailing list.

 

Then enter an autoresponder message in the text box. You cannot use HTML tags.

 

You can choose to enter a CC address. This will send a copy of each autoresponder to the address specified in the text box. By using this feature, you will be able to control how many requests your autoresponder receives.

 

Modifying/Deleting Autoresponders

 

All autoresponders are listed in the autoresponder menu. Select the autoresponder you want to delete and click “Delete Selected”.

 

 

An autoresponder can be changed by clicking on “Modify” after the autoresponder name. “Modify” allows you to change an autoresponder message and CC address. When you are done, click on the “Create” button.
