Managing Out-of-Office Replies
What happens if a Lead´s campaign is marked out-of-office?
If a Lead campaign progress is marked out-of-office, 14 more days will be added to the Wait Step.
For example, if a Lead's campaign progress is marked as out-of-office, and the next Wait Step is 3 days, QuickMail will send the next email 17 days after the last email was sent.
