Robotic email secretary

An autoresponder is an automated email system that sends preset replies when triggered—typically by receiving a message or a user action like subscribing to a list.

Out-of-office messages are simple autoresponders.

Marketing autoresponders send sequences of emails over time: The autoresponder sent a welcome email, then follow-ups promoting the product.
