Introduction

Vacation messages provide automated out-of-office responses, but removing these settings becomes necessary when you return from absence or no longer need automated replies. Deleting vacation messages ensures your email account returns to normal operation and prevents unnecessary auto-responses to incoming correspondence. DirectAdmin’s Vacation Messages interface provides a straightforward method for removing one or multiple vacation message configurations simultaneously. This guide explains how to delete vacation messages using the E-mail Management > Vacation Messages section in DirectAdmin, enabling you to quickly restore standard email functionality when automated responses are no longer needed.
