So-called auto-responder or "out of office reply" is handy if you are away or for some reason cannot read email for a period. People who send email to you will get a reply that the email is received, but will not be read or answered promtly. The auto-responder function is connected to each email account. If you have several email addresses that are assigned to the same email account, the auto-responder comprises all these email addresses.

Type the email addresses of people who you do NOT want to receive this auto-reply message in the Auto-reply to everyone except these email addresses field. Each email address must be separated by a semi-colon (;).

If you click "reply" to respond to a posted message, your reply will go to the whole list. If you prefer your message to go only to the individual poster, you must change the email address in the "to" section. If your reply is continuing the discussion of the previous topic, please leave that topic in the subject field of the message. If you are changing the topic, please change the word or phrase in the subject field, in order to describe your new topic.

If you forward your mail to the Exchange server, you have the option to use the Out of Office Assistant through Outlook and/or the vacation message through UNIX.

Short for digital subscriber line, a new technology that allows more data to be sent over existing copper telephone lines (POTS). DSL supports data rates up to 3 Mbps. DSL works by sending digital pulses in the high-frequency area of telephone wires. Since these high frequencies are not used by normal voice communications, DSL can operate simultaneously with voice connections over the same wires. DSL requires a special DSL modem.
