Auto reply (client rule) Outlook only Outlook 2010

When i setup a rule in outlook 2010 for automactic reply it say Client rule only. Is it possible to make this rule perminent so that i can close the outlook and the auto reply rule is still working. Maybe a server
based rule? We use outlook client with O365 exchange On-Premises
Thank you.

Hi,
I've tried the following with Outlook 2010 connected to Exchange 2013, and this works for me;
Select the Inbox, and click Tools, then Rules and Alerts.
Click New Rule and click Check messages when they arrive.
Click Next twice (don’t do anything in the "What condition(s) do you want to check?" box.)
Select have server reply using a specific message, and click …a specific message. A blank email appears.
In the Subject and Message fields, type the message you want to send. Leave the To, CC, and BCC (if showing) fields blank
Click Save and Close to close the message window and click Next.
Select the appropriate exclusion option (if any) and click Next.
Name the rule (do not check the Run this rule… checkbox.) and check Turn on this rule.
Click Finish.
That works for me. Make sure your outlook profile is configured to use the mailbox that you want to have the auto-reply configured.
If this still does not work, the alternative is to set up a transport rule on the Exchange server.

Auto-reply using rules

Hi there!
I'm trying to find out how to send an auto-reply using Rules in Mail 3.6
Or, to be more precise, i'm trying to understand how to do it PROPERLY: in fact this morning my boss called me to say he got approx. 60 emails from me, replying even mails from 2009/2010... and it was EMBARRASING!!
Some questions:
- when a Rule is set to auto-reply, does my own reply appear in the 'Sent' mailbox afterwards? Not in my case. Is it normal? I cannot see my reply 'flying away' in the 'Mail Activity' window either...
- when i press the '<' button in front of the received mail, that usually opens the mail i've sent as reply, i got a error window "Error. Mail was unable to find your response to the message “xxxxx”. You may have deleted the message." even if the correct reply generated by Rules was actually sent. Again, any idea why this happens?
- when a Rule is created, does it apply to ANY message in the mailbox, including old ones, or only to new mails?
That's it for now...
Thanks for help,
J.

Ok, after some more trials i've got the answer for my 3rd question... I have to click "Don't Apply" to avoid the rule to be applied to old messages.
But let's agree that the whole window:
"Do you want to apply your rules to messages in selected mailboxes?
Applying rules to the selected mailboxes may change their contents. Active rules will always be applied to new messages."
is quite ambiguous.
I'm still wondering the reason for the behaviour described in my first two questions...
Thanks,
J.

How to stop sending Auto Reply when I am only BCC'ed

Hi, I am working as software developer. I am in charge of the maintenance tasks of some of our company's sites. Most of those sites are sending email notifications once a transaction/ticket is created. I have put my email address to the BCC in those email
notifications so whenever there is an issue i have a copy of the email notification. My question is i will be out of office for some days and i need to setup an auto reply, how can i setup a rule which the OoO is being sent only when I am in the "TO"
and "CC"? I don't need to send an OoO when i am only BCC'ed. Thanks

In this case i won't enable Automatic Replies (Out of Office) as it will respond even when our name is in To or Cc or Bcc
I have created a rule where it will auto reply only when my name is in To or Cc
In Outlook, click on Tools | Rules and Alerts
Click New Rule
Select the radio option, Start from a Blank Rule
Ensure the option, 'Check messages when they arrive' and click NEXT
Select the option, 'where my name is in the To or Cc box'
Click NEXT
Select the option, 'have server reply using a specific message'
In the bottom section of the Rule wizard, "Step 2: Edit the rule description", click on the link 'a specific message'
An "untitled message' window opens, enter an appropriate subject, for example, Automatic Reply: Out Of Office, and enter appropriate text in the message body type
Thanks for the email. I am currently Out of Office. I don’t have access to my emails.
Click 'Save and Close' button
Click 'NEXT'
Click 'NEXT'
Enter a name for the Rule in the field 'Step 1: Specify a name for this rule'
Click 'Finish'
Sender who sends email when you enable the rule will get a response like the below:

Rule: Auto-reply

A rule I've set up works just fine EXCEPT
1) There is no trace of the auto reply in my SENT box. How do I obtain evidence the rule fired correctly if there's nothing in my SENT folder? (or am I missing something)
2) When someone has an autoreply of their own it creates a STORM of emails going back and forth. How do I set the rule to interrupt that behavior?
Thanks!

Anyone out there?

Mac Mail Rule - auto reply not sending while computer off

I created a Rule to send an out of office message while I was on vacation. I made the rule active and tested it from a different email account, and it worked.
While I was gone my computer was turned off. I was receiving emails, but no auto-reply message went out. When I got back to the office and booted up my computer and opened Mac Mail, it was then that all of my auto-reply messages went out. So, if someone emailed me a week before, they did not receive any auto-reply until I booted up my computer and opened Mac Mail. If someone had emailed me 5 times while I was gone, they received 5 auto-reply responses when I returned and booted up the computer and opened Mac Mail.
How can I make it so that Mac Mail sends the auto-reply while I am away and the computer is off?

I don't think you can send e-mails when the computer is off and the program is shut down. Try setting up a reply on your e-mail provider's web site.

Inbox rules (auto reply) and Outbox rules questions

I'm checking incoming messages for a certain subject. If the subject contains the string I want to auto-reply with a certain message.
The auto-reply works, but I notice the message doesn't show up in the Sent maibox. Is there a reason for that?
Also, I have an Outbox rule set up to forward the auto-reply mail to another address. That doesn't seem to take place.
What I really want to accomplish is just to auto-reply and bcc the auto-reply to a 3rd email address. Is that possible?
Thanks!

Apart from Lauras excellent answer, make your relay provider whitelist
your hostname and put it back in place. The hostname *is* important,
even when using a relay, and is used as sender for other mails, like
error messages.

How do i set an auto-reply at weekends only

Hi,
Ive been trying to work this out for days, but alas its beaten me ! I have a photography business with 'normal' business days staring at 9am Tuesday, ending 5pm Saturday. I therefore get a lot of enquiries on Sundays and Mondays (ie our 'weekend') and people don't often appreciate that its our day off. I'd like to set up an auto reply to e mails arriving in my inbox on Sundays and Mondays that say something like "I'm afraid that were closed on Sundays and Mondays, but we'll get back to you as soon as possible from Tuesday morning..." etc.
My theory is that i could set up the autoreply on Automator and have Calendar 'switch it on and off " at the right times with a repeat function. I just dont know how to set about doing either of teh two steps (if indeed its possible) and how to avoid e mail loops with people who also have autoreplies.
Any thoughts or ideas would be very much appreciatded !!
Thanks

In searching for a solution, I found this: http://guides.macrumors.com/DrivesandFilesystems
The info on Ext2 sounded promising, but comments at SourceForge indicated it did not work on Snow Leopard.
Another option is one of the NTFS drivers for the Mac. You could then format it as NTFS and use it on both Mac and Windows. However, I don't know how the permissions issues will work out.
I have run [NTFS-3G with MacFuse|http://www.tuxera.com/products/tuxera-ntfs-for-mac>, but not enough to say it is a viable solution for you. There used to be a free version, but it appears that it is no longer free.

AppleScript for Auto Reply to an email with an Attachment????

Forgive me. All this applescript stuff is fairly new to me. I've set up my Entourage email to automatically reply to certain rules that I have created. Well, I'm trying to have an attachment added to those auto replied emails. How can this be done? I'v researched for days and can only find stuff concerning Outlook Express which you are apparently given an option to add an attachment other than the mere text reply. Any info would be great!
Thanks much,
Robert

try this Robert, works here for me using Entourage 11.3.3
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
set theOrigionalMessage to the current messages
end tell
repeat with theMsg in theOrigionalMessage
my ProcessMsg(theMsg)
end repeat
on ProcessMsg(theMsg)
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"
activate
set theSender to sender's address of theMsg
set theSubject to "Heres your attachment"
set theBody to "test"
set _Attachment to "Macintosh HD:Users:Budgie:Desktop:TEST.txt" as alias
set MyReply to make new outgoing message with properties {recipient:theSender, subject:"Hello: " & theSubject, content:theBody}
make new attachment at MyReply with properties {file:_Attachment}
open MyReply --comment out if you dont need to view
--send MyReply -- un comment to send without viewing
end tell
end ProcessMsg

Deleting auto-reply???

a few months ago i set up an away from office autoreply using the mac mail client. but now, i can't turn the #$%^&*&&^ thing off!!!! most irritating. i've tried the preferences to rules drop-down, deleted any and all rules, and still the thing autoreplies to all of my correspondents. a techie @ my isp sez it appears my power book has been deluded into thinking it's an isp, whatever that means.
heeeeeeelp????

You're welcome.
Yes, but would it cause massive duplicates?
It all depends on how the rules are defined. The following scenario seems likely in your case. When the first message arrives, both an auto-reply is generated and the message is redirected to the .Mac account. The redirected message is received in the .Mac account and, hence, treated as just another incoming message, i.e. processed by all the rules. Since redirecting preserves the headers, it's treated in the same way as the first one, i.e. both a new auto-reply is generated and the message is redirected again...
If I have setup a 'reply' rule, then that shouldn't
cause any duplicates, right? It should simply reply
to the sender with my stock message.
Right.
Why it would send duplicates
It doesn't. It's the redirect rule that creates the new copy and sends it to yourself.
Maybe it's continuing to apply the rule as it sits in the Inbox?
No, it doesn't do that. The rule is applied to the new message that is received in your .Mac account because of the redirect rule.
Is there a way to tell it to only apply the rule once?
That's how it works. Rules are applied automatically to incoming messages only, not to already received messages, even if they are in the Inbox.
The redirect rule doesn't seem to theorectically
cause duplicates either.
Sure it does.
It should simply redirect
the email to my .Mac account, once.
In order to do so, it must create a new message, just like when forwarding. And yes, it does so once... for each incoming message...
Maybe I need to setup a rule saying [...]
Instead of (or in addition to) processing messages based on the address they're being sent to, process them based on the account that receives them.

"Rules will only be run on items in mail folders"

"Rules will only be run on items in mail folders"
I have a client that is trying to create rules in Outlook and she is the owner of a shared mailbox. Whenever she creates a rule for either one of the mailboxes she is also getting the "Rules will only be run on items in mail folders" error message and the
rules will not run. Previous rules did run Monday, but stopped on Tuesday.
The user deleted the rules and attempted to recreate them, but received the same error message. I noted the previous posts, copied the questions and answered them. Hope this helps.
1. How were the rules created? Was it created from Outlook or OWA or any 3rd party tool?
Created in Outlook, not in OWA or a 3rd party application.
2. Are these rules server side rules or client side rules
They are created client side and saved server side. Exchange Server is 2010.
3. Are these rules set for public folders or folders under mailbox
Rules are on a mailbox that the user owns and on a separate mailbox that the user has owner control on.
4. Were these rules working before?
The rules worked on Monday 11/19/2012, but stopped working the next day. The last software updates were on 11/15/2012
I also ran a repair on MS Office and the error message still comes up.

This thread is old but I thought I would add the information I have learned.
This problem all revolves around the option
“Enable Rules on all RSS Feeds”.
You have to check that in order to run any rules against RSS downloads but when you do, you get that message.
The option makes Outlook process the RSS Feeds folder which it normally skips (like Calendar,
Contacts, etc) and the RSS messages coming in. Although the RSS items look like regular Outlook e-mails, they are different and they are normally ignored unless that option is enabled. Because of those two
things, you get the pop-up message – which is not an error - it’s telling you that it’s can’t process non-mail folders and messages. You can usually fix it by setting your RSS Feeds to download into a SUB-FOLDER of the RSS Feeds folder.
Outlook actually want’s it that way and makes it hard to specify the root “RSS Feeds”.
You will still get the message less often but it will have a checkbox with, “Do not show this message again”.
Check that option because it’s just informative. and you should be all set.
I did the testing for this on Outlook 2007 not using Exchange. If someone else finds a situation where this doesn't apply or work, poke around non-mail folders and see why Outlook is processing them.

Auto reply in CIM 4.2.4

We have installed Cisco Email interaction manager 4.2.4 at one of our client site.
here we are unable to find the option for configuring auto reply (mail acknoldegment) in this.version of CIM.
If any one know about the auto reply configuration in CIM 4.2.4

You have not made a rule. It's not that obvious - but type the rule name in the Rule Name box and press the Enter key. Now you can select and configure the rule, and again press enter to create a row.
Lots of the EIM config works this way. You must press Enter.

Preventing Loops Mail Auto Reply

Using the Apple Mail client I've been unable to figure out how to set up an auto reply rule that also prevents message loops. Can someone help with this, please?
Thanks

Well, obviously by not sending the auto-reply to one of the mail accounts you’ve set up in Mail or by specifying the appropriate conditions in the rule so that messages sent by yourself aren’t auto-replied to. More specific information is needed if you want a more specific answer...
BTW, there is no way you could be using both Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger) and Mail 1.3 simultaneously, as your profile indicates. Please, update your My Settings’s profile (and click Save). And if you’re really running Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), it would have been more appropriate to discuss this in the Mail & Address Book - Tiger forum. If the discussion applies to both Mail 1.x and Mail 2.x, it doesn’t really matter, but it’s difficult to know that in advance.

Cannot get new messages to download automatically and auto reply with out of office message have to manually check for new messages to get it to do this

I am using Mozilla Thunderbird 31.3.0. I know how to create a message filter to set up an auto reply message, but cannot get Mozilla to automatically download new message and auto reply with the message in the filter unless I manually check for new messages, that is the only way to make it work. I have looked online and can't seem to find an answer to this particular issue. According to anything that I have found, I have the correct boxes checked in server settings: check for new messages at startup, automatically check for new messages, check for new messages every x amount of minutes. It's one thing to have to leave my computer on and Thunderbird open to make this work, but to have to manually check for new messages to get the auto response to work defeats the whole purpose of having an auto reply, as I use them for vacations, holidays, etc. I have wondered if there are any security settings that are causing this issue, but if so, I don't know what changes to make to them. Thanks in advance for any help. This is driving me crazy.

I do find it a bit odd that Thunderbird is not getting mail on schedule, perhaps you have an add-on or anti virus program that prevents that.
Holding shift while you start Thunderbird will start with add-ons disabled to check if mail come automatically.
Airmail is right though, use Verizons auto responder. This link might help with that http://www.verizon.com/support/residential/internet/highspeed/account+tools/email+tools/questionsone/85621.htm#
You say that not having such a setting in Thunderbird is something that needs fixing. This idea comes on the whole because Outlook has such an option. what most people are not aware of it only works with Exchange server. There is no "vacation response" in server mail specifications so every server implements it differently.
Just as all cars have a radiator, you can not take any radiator and just put it in, they are subtly different even though they perform the same purpose. Same goes for the various vacation responders, They perform the same purpose but they differ between email server software brands.
Thunderbird leaves it to the server end to expose the functionality, as they are really the only ones who understand what they did. Outlook exposes the option and mostly greys it out.
