Set end date on autoreply
It would be useful to be able to configure auto replies so that they end automatically on a specific date.
For instance, I am going on holiday for a week and would like the auto reply to automatically turn off when I return.
This feature is already implemented in the upcoming Plesk 12.1 release. We encourage you to check the implementation in one of upcoming Plesk previews and let us know what you think. Everyone, thanks for your input and votes.

A start and end date/time would be very helpful!

We also using Plesk 12.5.30 and have the same problem with the "endDate" Feature to automatically turn off the "Auto-Reply". Please Fix this!

We are using Plesk 12.5.30 for our mail server and several users have complained that the "Auto-OFF" feature does not work properly. The preset "OFF" date passes and the "Auto-Reply" message stays ON. In all cases, the Auto-Reply message has to be manually turned OFF to fix the problem. Is anyone else experiencing this same glitch?

I think the biggest thing needed is a way to control the time of day that it is switched off. I love the feature of the auto shutoff, but more than once now, I've set it to shut off the day they return and it leaves it on...I'm assuming it would shut it off eventually, maybe at night, but it certainly didn't do it in the morning. What time of day will it shut it down?

this feature still need work in my opinion. It lacks a start date and also control over the time of day the switch on/off is executed. currently seems to be tied to the plesk maintenance cron so it often gets executed in the evening i.e after business hours. If you can't give more control over the timing then perhaps add text to say it will be switched off for the NEXT business day.
So far i've got several complaints it didn't switch off when expected...

This feature is a must have.
It would as well be very useful to define recurring autoreplys – i.e. I'm out of office every Thursday. But it's a waste of time to switch it on manually every Wednesday and switch it off every Friday … -

Hi, when the users inform me that they will be out of office on next month 1 June to 10 June, because I will be on leave on the same period.
Please add feature in the email server out of office function, to allow pre-schedule setting to set the sending of out of office message on [dd/MM/yy] and auto cut off the out of office on [dd/MM/yy].

I've also seen customers that want scheduled auto-replies.
In the sense that they might not be at the office on thursdays, so each thursday an auto-reply should be sent. -

This is a logical feature to auto-reply / auto-responder.
Would be nice if this could be included by Plesk 12. -

Migrated from Directadmin to Plesk and I'm really really missing the ability to scheduled auto-reply. Both start and end dates.

Start Date too. So you can set it in advance to kick in at a given date/time. Ending at a given date/time. Very useful available in cPanel.
