6/16/26 - got a letter informing she's going on maternity leave. She encouraged me to reach out to another agent. Same as others I think

Q: 04/22/2026
R (form): 06/16/2026 - Form, like everyone else the reason is maternity leave and to reach out to another agent. I would not consider this a referral especially considering it's a form response.

"Please feel free to reach out to Hannah Teachout" Is that a referral? Would she recommend submitting to someone else if the query was no good? Or do you think she didn't even read it?
