Hello,

I would like to do an autoreply based on message contents. So if a
message comes in with for example, the words "superbowl tickets", it
replies with "yes please".

Of course I don't want it to fire for just "superbowl", or just
"tickets", but "superbowl tickets" or "superbowl AND "tickets" would
be fine.

The problem is, Outlook seems to allow an "or" (it puts it in
automatically when you add multiple entries to the search text during
rule creation), but you don't see to able to use an "and".

Any idea how this can be done?

Also, is it possible to reply to the original email rather than
sending a template in response?

Cheers

I don't think that's possible. My personal opinion is that Outlook is not
well-suited to what you wish to achieve.
