It is essential to set up a message informing your interlocutors of your lack in a temporary or prolonged absence.
The message must indicate the contact details of the people in charge of replacing you during this period.
It is inappropriate to indicate the reasons for your absence and the place of your destination. This information is generally excessive. On the other hand, inviting your correspondent to contact you on your return date can be judicious.
Below are four examples of absence messages for Email:
