Frequently asked questions
What should an out of office message say?
Say that you are away, when you will be back, and who to contact for urgent matters. Keep it short and professional; this generator writes exactly that for vacation, sick leave, travel, holidays, and parental leave.
Is this out of office message generator free?
Yes, completely free and no signup. Generate as many messages as you like and copy the one you want.
How do I set an out of office reply in Gmail or Outlook?
In Gmail, go to Settings, then "Vacation responder", and paste your message. In Outlook, go to File, then "Automatic Replies", and paste it there. Set your start and end dates so it turns off automatically.
What about the calls I miss while I am away?
An auto-reply only covers email. Yiriba answers your business calls live while you are out, books appointments, and texts callers back, so being away never costs you a customer.
