A couple work friends and I banded together years ago to fill each others’ voicemails so it would be impossible to leave us new voicemails.
So what do good out-of-office messages look like? Here are a handful of examples that will help you craft the perfect out-of-office message:

Click the cog and select ‘Automatic replies’Select ‘Send automatic replies’Specify a time periodWrite your out of office emailConfirm other details and press ‘OK’
Thank you for your email. I am out of the office in observance of [holiday] with limited access to email and will return on [date]. Your message is very important to me, and I will respond as soon as possible. If you need immediate access, please contact [number].

4. I am currently out at a job interview and will reply to you if I fail to get the position. 5. You are receiving this automatic notification because I am out of the office. If I …
“We will get in touch with you very soon”.“Thank you for reaching out to us”.“Our representative we contact you ASAP”.
While this sounds kind of onerous, I don’t think it’s actually a bad idea to say “I don’t have this info but I’ll get back to you when I find out” if it’s going to take a while.
It’s possible I might quote from some responses to this in an upcoming column, so please note if you don’t want me to do that with yours!
