auto replies / vacation messages

Hi All,

What is the correct way to implement out of office replies for dbmail
2.2? I see people on this list using sieve (vacation), but I've used an
entry in dbmail_auto_replies, and I think (but am not sure) that I've
seen that one work before.

Anyway: It seems broken in the dbmail debian package version 2.2.10-1
+b1.

Would upgrading to the 2.2.11-1etch0 package solve my problem?

Greetz,

Casper

auto-reply and auto-notify has been removed from 2.3.x. The only way to
do it is with sieve. You would need to use the vacation or notify method.

Examples Below. Note that the true can be replaced with other ways of
matching messages specifically. Rules to sort mailing list messages into
other mailboxes should be first and include the stop command so that the
vacation doesn't go back to the mailing list. Sieve scripts do not get
updated if the mailbox is renamed, so if you rename a mailbox, you need
to update the script as well.

if anyof (header :contains ["to", "cc"] "dbmail [at] dbmail",
header :contains ["to", "cc"] "dbmail-dev [at] dbmail")
{
fileinto "Lists/DBMAIL";
stop;
}


if true
{
vacation :days 7 :addresses ["vulture [at] netvulture"] :subject "On
Vacation Until Forever" text:
I will look at your email when I get back.
..
;
}

if true
{
keep;
notify :method "mailto" :options "otheremail [at] domain" :low :message
"You have received a message from $from$ with subject $subject$";

}
