How to configure ‘out of office’ reply on SBCGlobal email?

The Auto-response feature available in the SBCGlobal Email account is useful for those who are going out for vacation with family and don’t want to get disturbed from the routine activities or business operations.

Are you going out on vacation or just planning to stay away from everyone? If yes, then you may or may not be aware of the thing that you can tell the same to the people that I am not answering the emails.

Most of the email services like SBCGlobal provide you with the option to set up ‘out of office’ or ‘Away from home’ message on it. Anyone who emails you will get the message reply on the email address.

To begin with the ‘Setup’ process, you need to follow the below-mentioned steps.
