When the shared inboxes are no longer being monitored, please setup an out-of-office reply so no emails are missed. This allows time for admins to archive the inbox. The following out of office messages can be used:

  • Due to the decrease in fire activity, this email account has been deactivated. Please contact your local land management agency with any questions.
  • Due to the decrease in fire activity, this email account is no longer being monitored. If you need further assistance, please contact <<insert name and phone number and/or email address>>.
