Setting up auto-replies in M365 sounds easy—until you're on a limited plan like Outlook Online Plan 1. In this episode, Charly shares the surprisingly tricky process he followed to auto-respond only to specific emails (like contact form inquiries), using Power Automate instead of built-in Outlook settings.

📌 You’ll learn:

✅ Why standard M365 plans don’t support filtered auto-replies

✅ How to use Power Automate to trigger responses by subject or sender

✅ What “Reply-To” means and how to use it safely

✅ How to build a smart fallback if the Reply-To address is missing

✅ Why this method works even when basic Outlook settings don’t

🛡️ This one’s a bit technical — but once it’s set up, it works like a charm.
