We recommend setting your out-of-office reply in the Northwestern Outlook Web app, so that you can edit these settings from any device.

1. Navigate to your Northwestern Outlook Web app. Log in with your NetID and password, then authenticate via Duo Mobile.
2. Select the Gear icon on the top right.

 

 

3. In the Settings window, select Account on the left panel, then Automatic replies.

 

 

4. Click the notch to turn Automatic replies on, and set a time period if needed.

 

 

5. Draft your out-of-office and check the box to Send replies outside your organization. You can use the same message or different messages for internal and external replies.

 

 

6. Click Save at the bottom of the window once complete.
