Configuring Autoresponders in cPanel

Autoresponders allow cPanel to send automatic email replies when messages are received. They are commonly used for out-of-office notices, automated information replies, or temporary notifications for specific mailboxes.

Accessing the Autoresponders section

Autoresponders are managed directly from the cPanel interface.

1. Melden Sie sich in Ihrem CPANEL -Konto an.
2. Öffnen Sie die Tools page.
3. Im E-Mail Abschnitt, klicken Autoresponders.

2. Select the Zeichensatz for the message.
3. Set the Intervall in hours to control how often replies are sent to the same sender.
4. Enter the mailbox name in the E-Mail Feld.

Deleting or temporarily disabling an autoresponder

Autoresponders that are no longer required should be removed.

1. Log in to cPanel and open Autoresponders.
2. Locate the autoresponder.
3. Klicken Löschen.
4. Bestätigen Sie den Löschvorgang.

As an alternative to deletion, an autoresponder can be temporarily disabled by editing it and assigning it to a non-existent mailbox. This allows quick reactivation later.
