Hi,
I've been trawling the internet for the past couple of days to try and find an 
answer to a little problem I have, but none of the solutions seem to fit what 
I'm trying to do.
 
Basically I have Exim, Horde and Imp installed with version 1.1.9 of vacation 
sitting in /usr/local/bin on a FC 6 server.
 
Everything works fine, except for the vacation module of Horde which generates 
a .forward file of
 
\user, "|/usr/local/bin/vacation user"
 
Apart from the fact that the .forward file is missing the line # Exim filter, 
Exim doesn't seem to like that command (in fact no reply is sent, and emails 
don't get delivered).
 
However with a bit of routing around, I found that this command does work in 
the .forward file if put in manually.
 
unseen pipe "/usr/local/bin/vacation -a user-alias user"
 
So, my question is simply this - why does the command generated by horde (and 
by vacation at the command line) not work with exim, but the command I 
discovered does work ?
 
The configure file is right out of the box (with a few tweaks for courier-imap) 
with no routers etc for vacations, so my understanding is that the .forward 
file is being handled by the forward router and transport.
 
Any help gratefully received
 
Mike
