Hello Rushil,

It is good that you are taking lead in replying to questions. 

This template is quite appropriate. Is it possible to set auto reply to emails with this template?

I'd tried this last year when we were flooded with queries. 

While we can set up autoreply, it is a bit spammy because it would reply to everyone in the group and not just the person who posted. So I thought this was a better solution.
