The autoresponder is ideally suited in those situations where you find yourself always answering the same e-mail question. If you find yourself answering the same question using a standard reply, you probably could use an autoresponder.

We have two types of responder available to you. One is called "pass-thru" whereby the responder confirms that a message has been received and that it has been forwarded to you. This is much like a delivery confirmation.

Our responder can also be set to "answering-only" mode. This is particularly well suited to reply to e-mail messages that request the same information from you, such as requests for company information, calendar of events, price lists, product listings and descriptions, schedules. When the responder receives a message, it will automatically reply with a message you have already composed. This is very similar to a fax-on-demand system.

Note that the Autoresponder can be integrated with other features such as email-redirection. The Autoresponder works without your intervention 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Sit back, relax, and let the Autoresponder do all the work!

Example 1:

If you would like a short description of all the features that are available, please send a message to features@feature-showcase.com The autoresponder will then send you a plain text file describing each feature.

This is a good example of an answering-only responder

Example 2:

To demonstrate the pass-thru mode, send a question about our plans, or features to our Sales and Marketing Department. Our system will transfer your inquiry to the Sales Department, and at the same time, it also sends you an automated message acknowledging receipt of your message.
