It's common to word your out-of-office message this way, but it could be causing you unnecessary issues when you get back.
OOO emails are important for setting boundaries while you're away. You want to word it right.
The big mistake many of us make is saying too much and overcommitting to a response by a certain date. “I suggest making this a few days after your return. So if you get back on June 6th, let them know that they’ll hear from you the week of June 12th,” she said. “If they get an early response, great! But if it takes you a while to prioritise a response, they won’t be following up.”Keep in mind that out-of-office emails are meant to help you set boundaries while you are away. If you say you are reachable, people will try to reach you.
“The best OOO messages are ones that I can read in the byline of my inbox. In one sentence ― two max ― tell me the dates you’ll be out and who I can contact in your absence. That’s all I need to know!” Karachristos said.
