In my case, I use a vacation router/transport to generate autoreply (vacation) messages. Easier for the users: they just put their message into a file, and do not have to worry about filter syntax. My method is documented at: http://wiki.exim.org/EximAutoReply Note that associated with it is a long list of patterns that match 'senders to whom autoreply messages should not be sent'. My own implementation has an additional list of local addresses that generate mail but do not expect a reply. Note also that there are a number of other conditions on an incoming message which indicate that a reply should not be sent; the 'personal' test encapsulates few of these. I guess even my own list is not exhaustive, but it does deal with the vast majority now. My feeling is that the conditions used by the 'personal' test need to be directly configurable by the server administrator, so that user filters using the test benefit from lists such as the above. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.exim.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-dev Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ##
