When you know you will be out of the office for a period of time, you may want to send automatic e-mail replies to incoming e-mail messages, record an out of office greeting for telephone calls, and forward incoming e-mails and voice mails to a colleague. You can limit the amount of information you reveal in Out of Office e-mails, especially to people outside the Marquette community and you can choose to respond to only your contacts as it is advisable not to respond to spam.

IT Services recommends that you shut down your computer if you will be out of office for an extended period of time.
