Set up auto replies for a group

If Google Groups isn't available in your work or school account, ask your administrator to turn on Groups for Business.

Group owners and managers can set up auto replies for their groups. Auto replies are messages sent automatically when people email the group. These replies let senders know their messages have been received. 

If message moderation is turned on, an auto reply is sent only after a message is approved. Visit Approve or block new messages.
