I had one regular also get upset at my auto reply. And another on Friday when I told him I was going th play offs n couldn't see him for N appt. he goes oh. Yeah I get the hint. I was like hint what hint it's freaky fri night and I actually made plans for once. I do want to see him for an appt just not on a night I have plans to go out for a celtics game.  
It was so I credibly rude. I vowed to not answer my phone any more to give explanations no matter what it is I am doing they always always get pissed I a unavailable at that exact moment they wanna see me.  
I used to at least answer the phone n say I am unavailable but then attempt to procure a date for a future session.  
I vowed to just keep phone shut off now until I am ready to take calls if I have plans . Guys don't take no well sometimes, not all of course but some take it personally and find it hard to believe you may have something's other than lay around and escort no tht you may actually have a life.
That is funny when they get Angey at the auto response. Def encountered that too.

it gets to where all you can do is laugh some mornings when you open your inbox.

i'm convinced that reading comprehension has officially gone to hell in a handbasket, lol.
ok, so i'd recently had my wisdom teeth extracted, which requires surgery, and some
recovery time before, er, commencing with regular activities ;)

so i'd let my regular clients know i would be taking about a week or so off.
and then i set my inbox to auto-reply explaining my taking time off, why i was taking time off,
exactly how much time off i was taking, and that i likely wouldn't
be checking my emails.

anyway.  
i had my wisdom teeth yanked, and the week went by.  
i logged in and checked my messages.

-a portion were from my always wonderful regulars with well-wishes (aww thanks guys).
-a portion were from prospective clients saying ok and that they'd contact me in a week.
-a larger portion were from others who apparently didn't read one word of the reply.
-finally...i opened one set of msgs (re:re:re:re:re:re:re:re..etc)  
and watched an entire bitter arguement unfold between one prospective client and my auto-reply.
"are you available?" auto reply.
"well let me know when you'll be available." auto reply.
"so what the hell are you saying?" auto reply.
"why do you keep sending me the same message??" auto reply.
"well if you want my business you need to respond today." auto reply.
"WHY THE FUCK DO YOU KEEP SENDING ME THIS?" auto reply.  
"YOU KNOW WHAT NEVERMIND YOU OBVIOUSLY DONT WANT TO MAKE ANY MONEY." auto reply.

it's nice to start the mornings with a good laugh.

:)

That's hilarious. So will you be meeting him? At least be nice to the doofus and email him letting him know he was argueing with your auto reply.  

I have had a few do that too. I just took mine off recently as I think a friend of mine that I email often (a few times a day), might get annoyed at all the auto responses.  

Some people are nnot knowledgeable on auto replies or they don't think about if it is one. Anytime I get an auto reply, it is noticeable that it is one, and if not I figure it out when I email back and get a repeat email stating the exact same thing.

lol :D

Freakin morons crack me up. I just let them argue with the thing for a day or so, then finally respond with "Are you done yet? Now, this is London responding, and you've proven to be more of a moron than I had you pegged for. Try a crack head."

Speaking of which, maybe your auto replier and my auto replier should get together some time!  LOL

Someone that doesn't know what an auto reply to an e-mail is probably shouldn't be using e-mail to begin with.
