The best way to do it is on your email server's web portal. If you are using iCloud, then you can set it in the Mail preferences on www.icloud.com.
If you try to make a rule locally on your Mac, Mail must be open to respond, and you can get into a spam war with someone else who has done the same thing where your response triggers a response from the other's email client which will cascade infinitely. Setting an out of office reply on the server can avoid such issues.
