Hey I forgot to ask you if I can block emails while I am out of town ...you know I am out of the office until Dec.31st??

Depending on the email service, there are different ways to do this. I believe you have a gmail account as your main account so you’ll want to go to www.gmail.com and log in to your email account. Next, click the gear in the top right area and choose “settings”.


Now scroll down to the bottom of the page and you’ll see “Vacation Responder”. From there you can select a date range and what you’d like to say in your auto response. Lastly, save changes at the very bottom.

For iCloud email (@mac.com, @me.com, or @icloud.com) the procedure is similar. You would log in to www.icloud.com and adjust the settings from the web page.

You do not set up auto respond to happen locally on your computer. You use the email’s webmail web page. That way it will work whether your computer is on and running or not. Have a safe trip!
