Setting delegates
You have the ability to set a delegate who will receive messages and notifications when your out of office is set. The options within the dropdown are pre-set depending on your hierarchy type and manager. These options are set within your user details and are controlled by your admin user.
Message signature & email notifications
You can override the default message signature with a custom signature. This will be displayed in each new message and reply you send in the message centre.
There is basic formatting, and you can cut and paste from another email signature.
You can select/deselect 2 types of emails notifications.
Setting an out of office timeframe
By setting an out of office, an [out of office] will show next to your name within the recipient dropdown field in the message centre. Tick enable out of office status, this will stay active until you untick enable out of office status.
Alternatively, you can set a specific time range for the out of office to show. You can select dates by using the calendar and the time by using the dropdowns, or you can type directly into the time range field. When you have set the required period, click apply. Your out of office will then automatically switch on and off.
Setting an out of office message
You can set a message to be shown during the out of office period. This message will appear below any reply message boxes, and under the subject heading within a new message. This out of office can be used to advise who the user should select as a recipient and that a chosen delegate will receive notifications for any emails that are sent to you while your out of office is on.
If you do not enter any text in the message box, the out of office message will show an empty red box for any user trying to send you a message.
