    You need the "Out of Office Assistant" under the Tools menu. In there you should be able to set up an "away" message and there's also an extensive rule system you can set up that'll only send it when certain conditions exist (i.e., from noon to 1pm while you're at lunch or on break, etc).

    Hope that helps get you on the right track.

    Just one thing to add here - If you have the autoresponder option available at your mail server (eg Googlemail), you can set this up without the need to leave your PC switched on, whilst you are away

    With googlemail you can set up an Autoresponder to reply to either all mail - or the better option, only to those mails from people in your contact list,(so the spammers do not get any reply
