How an SMS Auto-Reply Appears
When you have your SMS Auto-Reply enabled, Users and non-users of Dialpad will receive the SMS auto-reply message. As long as you chose whether to activate it for outside of personal working hours or in Do Not Disturb mode, the SMS auto-reply message will get sent in the regular conversation thread view.
If your SMS Auto-reply is more than 160 characters in length, it may be split into two messages.
