Re: [exim] Subject from the .vacation.msg

[Matthew Soccio]

I wanted to reply to my own question with the final answer that seems to work. After a bit of testing and tweaking, here are the transport and router that will allow users to have a Subject: line in their .vacation.msg file. Thanks to Ian's suggestions, auto-replies from this router should be rfc3834 and rfc2047 compliant.

vacation_router:
 driver = accept
 check_local_user
 user = ${lc:$local_part}
 domains = +local_domains
 require_files = ${home}/.vacation.msg
 address_data = ${readfile{${home}/.vacation.msg}}
 # See Exim autoreply wiki for list of senders that we don't auto-reply to.
 senders = !+noautoreply_senders
 # do not reply to errors or lists
 condition =  ${if or { \

 no_expn
 transport = vacation_transport
 unseen
 no_verify

vacation_transport:
  driver = autoreply
  user = ${lc:$local_part}
  mode = 700
  log = ${home}/.vacation.log
  once = ${home}/.vacation.db
  once_repeat = 7d
  from = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  to = $sender_address
  subject = ${if match {$address_data}{\N(?i)^subject:\s+(\w+.*)\n(.*)\N}\
            {Auto: ${rfc2047:${escape:${length_60:$1}}}}\
            {Auto: Re: ${rfc2047:${escape:${length_60:$h_subject:}}}}}
  text = ${if match {$address_data}{\N(?i)^(subject:\s+\w+.*\n).*\N}\
         {${sg {$address_data}{$1}{}}}\
         {$address_data}}

In order for the senders = !+noautoreply_senders bit to work, I have "addresslist noautoreply_senders = /etc/exim/autorep.noanswer" in the main section of my config, and the autorep.noanswer file is populated with the list mostly lifted from the autoreply wiki.
