Hello,
I am looking for updated information from this thread: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook\_com/forum/all/how-to-set-up-an-auto-response-without-showing-as/92daae39-e8b2-4eef-809a-0675310a837a
I am trying to set up a rule to auto-reply to messages I receive with a template email. I don't see the action listed in the thread linked above within the new outlook system - there are no 'Reply' actions at all, other than to 'Reply with a meeting'.
Please let me know how I can accomplish this in the new Outlook. Thank you!
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
This is a MAJOR miss in the new Outlook (both web and app version). MS needs to bring back the option to create a rule that permits the "Reply" actions with specific message template/language. For example, I want to create a conditional rule that states any email coming from a specific sender should receive an auto-reply to sender with specific verbiage/message that I can create.
This was possible previously with Outlook - why would they take that away in the new Outlook??
I too had this rule before the new outlook version launched.
I would also like to know how to create a template email which is sent as an action to a rule I create, not as an out of office.
I don't see the action listed in the thread linked above within the new outlook system - there are no 'Reply' actions at all, other than to 'Reply with a meeting'.
"new Outlook system" as in the New Outlook that is replacing Windows Mail and eventually (maybe) classic Outlook? It does not support templates.
