At DrJays we currently use auto-responders for two things:
1. Saying "thank you for sending your resume to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]" etc. To let someone know we received it. Lest
they pester us or something I guess.
2. Telling coworkers who wonder why we are slacking on their request
that we are actually out of town on vacation for two weeks and that they
might want to talk to someone else and we aren't just ignoring them.
I never set a vacation message personally, it seems a bit
self-important. But on the other hand perhaps I have pissed people off
by not following up on their support requests in a timely manner when I
have been indisposed.
I don't know if they are worth it but it seems auto-responders are
something we will never get away from because it will be impossible to
convince the suits that they are unnecessary.
