Webmail Auto-responders?

[JasonS]

Hey guys,

Is there a function that I configure in cPanel/WHM or Webmail, whereby out-of-hours, all e-mails sent to e.g. sales@mysite.com automatically send the auto-responder.

I don't want to have to keep adding a responder at 10PM everynight and for weekend, is there any automatic function for this?

With Thanks,
Jason S

There's no preset function, all I can say is, try creating a cron-job to change the email to a auto-responder a 10pm?

I'm not sure how I'd do this though.

you could set the cron to run a script. with the script, you will need to be familiar with curl more than likely, and the script would need to log cpanel, and enable the auto responder, and then after a certain time, run another cron to turn them off. that is all i would think of. your best bet would be to see if Joe may know of something, as he is the most knowledgeable programmer here. Carl is really good too, and may be of assistance. if Trevor was ever on anymore, i would say ask him too, but, no much luck of that.
