Is it possible to create an auto reply for inbox messages on Canvas (for example an out of office message)?

Last evening I stumbled upon a pretty new blog post from Instructure.  It appears as though auto-replies are coming to the Canvas Inbox (so you could use them as an out-of-office if you wanted).  Here's a blog posting from Instructure with the details (and much more):

@l_m_vander_lubb - The feature @Chris_Hofer saw coming is now here! If your admin selects the "Enable Inbox Auto Response" checkbox in the Account Settings page, then instructors and students can set up auto replies in the Inbox settings.
