Using Filters in Gmail and Canned Responses as Auto-Responder Part 3

Now you can tell Gmail on this next window what to do with the 'filtered messages' we just created before.

You can choose multiple options here i.e. to 'Skip the Inbox' and 'Apply the Label' but definitely 'Send canned response' where we click 'Choose canned response'

Now Choose from the Canned Responses you have created before and are now here available as a Selection and finally activate it with a check mark!

You prefer to communicate an email from your Main-Domain (xxx@yourdomain.com)?

Forwarding a 'Main-Domain-Email' to your Gmail Account and use Filter & Canned Responses (as just shown before)

  • In case you prefer to use a 'Main-Domain-Email', which of course looks more professional than a Gmail-Address, use or create an email under https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/websites/email#create-new-email-forward if your Domain is hosted here in WA (elsewhere create it with the hosting provider you use).

    Make sure the email is forwarding to that Gmail-Account you want to use as an Auto-Responder (DO NOT USE POP3 or 'Send mail as' integration in your Gmail Settings, cause Canned Responses WONT WORK THIS WAY!

Instead of telling your readers to put the keyword in the subject line, you can create a mailto: link with the subject line autofill method. Add a parameter to the email address ?subject="your keyword"

Put a mailto: link in your ad/email ad and ask they click the link to receive more info.

Using standard link formatting, add email link "mailto:name@yourdomain dot com?subject=Keyword You Selected"

PERFECT!! Great contribution!!

I wanted to research about making a Lead/Squeeze-Page like Contact form with the email being the only thing to put in and send, which I am sure you can do but after a whole day producing this tutorial (took me longer than I thought - as usual) I ran out of time & power. So I was planning on doing an edit of that tutorial.

I wish I could pin your comment at the top, to be visible for all, but instead, I will put it in the Tutorial once I will edit it!

Thanks a lot @GlenPalo
