To configure the Autoreply plugin, you must create
message rules. Each rule consists of a filter and an action. The filter
decides, whether the action should be applied to the incoming message. The
filter can be used to identify certain phone numbers or incoming
message text and react accordingly. The action part of the rule can be
used to create a reply or to forward the message to another GSM
number.
