  • Character Set: just leave this to the default.
  • Interval: The "interval" is the time for the autoresponder to wait before it sends out a second autoreply to the same person. For example, if you set up an autoresponder with an interval of 8, and you receive an email from This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. at 8 am on Monday, the autoresponder will respond to his message immediately.
