When a customer sends *what*? Are they contacting via email or a form?
If the customer is contacting via email, there is a free pop3 auto reply
account available at:
<http://www.webmailstation.com/turn.html>

or check out TheMail.com:
<http://www.themail.com/>

Also, check out Smart Responder, that can be activated either by sending
an email or by using a form on a website:
<http://www.getresponse.com/>

If this site is hosted on a paid server, you might want to check w/ the
host and see if they offer a free auto-responder script for using in a
form (some do).

If you have access to the cgi-bin, then you could opt to go w/ a cgi
script for a form, that offers an auto-responder. One that comes to mind
is:

EasyForm:
<http://www.getperl.com/easyform/>

If you are looking for your *own* mail processor, then check out RSVP:
<http://www.chimerasoft.com/rsvp/>

or ProcMail:
<http://www.procmail.org/>

for Outlook or Exchange users, see MailMachine:
