Auto-reply in messaging tool

It would be a great feature if the messaging tool could be upgraded with an auto-reply-feature. This would be a great help for teachers and staff when off on vacation and if a specific user only wants to send messages but do not want to answer - like noreply-messages from administrative staff etc.

    Our teachers would also need this, a possibility to add an auto-reply text. We have run into this problem for instance when a teacher is on a longer leave, maternity leave or vacation, and students write messages through itslearning on previous courses and don't get an answer as the teacher is on a leave.

    This is something we would greatly benefit from aswell.

    Would also help to prevent students from getting frustrated over not getting an answer within a reasonable timeframe.

    I only work part time and this would make it way easier for the students to understand when I can be expected to answer or not
