Setting up an out of office message in Gmail is simple. First, (1) put the message you wrote in the text box and format it properly. Then (2) choose a schedule for your auto-replies.

If you don’t know when you’re going to return you can leave it empty. Out of office replies can also be (3) manually toggled on or off at any time.

Fortunately, it also reportedly piqued the interest of retailers and restaurants, keen to start carrying the tipple.
