AutoReply Flow for Office 365

In Office 365 each user can control personal automatic reply settings (formerly "Out of Office assistant").

Most businesses that use Office 365 have to generate auto replies for messages sent to common corporate addresses (support@contoso.com, info@contoso.com etc.). Usually the companies use a combination of the shared mailbox and Outlook rule "Have server reply using a specific message". However there are some disadvantages with this method:

• An auto-reply message is sending to the address that have been set in the From: address of original message. It ignores the Reply-To: address if it presents.
• The subject line of auto-reply message is always the same. It doesn't correlate with the Subject line of original message.
• The body of auto-reply message does not include the original message text.

AutoReply flow has the following features:

1. The subject line of auto-reply message consists of the prefix ("Confirmation:", "Autoreply:" etc) and the Subject line of original message.
2. If an original message has the Reply-To: address field then an auto-reply message will be sent to this address. If an original message has not the Reply-To: address field then an auto-reply message will be sent to the From: address of the original message.
3. You can set any content of the auto-reply message.
4. The body of auto-reply message may include the original message text.
