Hello,
I would like to know how to schedule the activation of my out-of-office message every other Wednesday, which would save me from having to do it manually each time?
Even better: every Tuesday and Friday afternoon.
Thank you,
Mickaël

It's nice to respond, but we're not making progress; your answer is always the same...
Of course I can define a period, but it is only valid ONCE. I've been doing it for years.
I'm looking for recurrence / periodicity (weekly, monthly, annually).

Thank you, I am currently doing this, but I have to do it every Tuesday evening prior to my absence.

I would like to be able to set a periodicity for my out-of-office message.
(like I did for the appointment indicating my absence in my Outlook calendar: This appointment has a periodicity of every other Wednesday, so it is scheduled in advance for the whole year, or even more).

ok. Maybe like this then: 1. select file > automatic replies
2. In the Automatic Replies dialog box, select Send automatic replies.
3. In the Inside my organization tab, type the response you want to send to your colleagues during your absence from the office. Click on send automatic replies (send only during this time: choose date...)
4. Select Ok to save your settings

Thank you, but it’s the same thing: it allows you to send the out-of-office message from a certain date to a certain date. But then it’s over, the automatic reply doesn’t reactivate because the chosen period is in the past.
Another idea?

1. Go to the "Outlook settings" icon at the top right, then click on "View all Outlook settings"
2. Click on Mail, then Automatic replies
3. Turn on Automatic replies
4. In the text box, enter the automatic reply you wish to send to all correspondents who try to contact you. If you only want your contacts to receive this out-of-office message, check the box "Send replies only to my contacts."
5. Click the Save button at the top left to confirm the activation of your out-of-office message.

In the automatic replies, you can also select a time period.

Hello,

Maybe like this: 1. Click on the File tab, then on the Info tab in the menu
2. Click on Automatic Replies (Out of Office)
3. In the Automatic Replies dialog box, check the box for Send automatic replies.
4. If you want to specify a date and time range, check the box for Send only during this time period. Then set the start time and end time.
5. Under the Inside My Organization tab, type the message to be sent within your organization; under the Outside My Organization tab, type the message to be sent outside of your organization.
6. Click OK.
7. If you selected the option "Send only during this time period" in step 4, the Automatic Replies (Out of Office) function will run until the date and time indicated as End time in step 5.
Otherwise, the Automatic Replies (Out of Office) function will run until you return to step 1 and select the "Do not send automatic replies" option.
