If your mail setup is OK and functioning properly, each user may use the
vacation program. See the man page details.

man vacation :)
NAME
vacation - E-mail auto-responder
DESCRIPTION
Vacation returns a message, ~/.vacation.msg by default, to
the sender informing them that you are currently not read-
ing your mail. The message is only sent to each sender
once per reply interval (see -r below). The intended use
is in a .forward file.
Take care,
