5. On the Inside My Organization tab, type the response that you want to send to teammates or colleagues while you are out of the office.
6. On the Outside My Organization tab, select the Auto-reply to people outside my organization check box, and then type the response that you want to send while you are out of the office.

Microsoft Outlook 2013
1. In Outlook, Click the File tab.
2. Click Automatic Replies.
3. Select Send automatic replies.
4. If you want, select the Only send during this time range check box to schedule when your out-of-office replies are active. If you don’t specify a start and end time, auto-replies are sent until you select the Do not send automatic replies check box.
5. On the Inside My Organization tab, type the response that you want to send to teammates or colleagues while you are out of the office.
6. On the Outside My Organization tab, select the Auto-reply to people outside my organization check box, and then type the response that you want to send while you are out of the office. Select whether you want replies sent to My contacts only or to Anyone outside my organization who sends you messages.
7. Click OK to save and turn on the automatic replies you have created.

Please Note: If the automatic reply is set to begin immediately or once the date you set has been reached, a notice will be placed above your inbox messages indicating that automatic replies are being sent for your account. You can turn off this feature by clicking the Turn off button. If you no longer want to view the notice, click the X at the end of the bar.

Warning: If the automatic reply is set on the “Outside My Organization” tab, it is possible that is may inadvertently reply to SPAM messages and thus confirm that this is a live account to continue to sent junk emails. Second, it also tells any exploiter how long they have to try and gain access to your mail and network account and to pretend to be your IT Department sending mails to reset or confirm your login credentials.
