How to setup out of office notification (cPanel)

Going on holiday? In cPanel it is easy to setup a ‘out of office’ notification and only takes a few moments. The cPanel ‘out of office’ notification is called an ‘Auto Responder’. To setup your auto responder, please complete the following:

1. In your internet browser navigate to: www.yoursite.co.uk/webmail

2. Login with your full email address (i.e. bob@bobsmith.co.uk) and password

3. Click on “Auto Responders”. This is located near the bottom of the page, see screen below:

4. You will now be presented with a page showing your current ‘Auto responders’. Also on this page will be a button named ‘Add Auto Responder’ – click on that.

5. The ‘Add Auto Responder’ page will now be shown, simply complete the form entering your ‘out of office’ reply and click on ‘Create/Modify’

Done. Your ‘Out of Office’ notification will now be live. Have a good holiday! (remember to turn it off when you get home!)
