Thanks for that, Now getting somewhere. However, now have a new problem.
This is how we're set up here Fred Jones has a log in account of fjones for his email. The mail server has the domain name of mail.example.com Freds email is delivered to [EMAIL PROTECTED] So we have a virtual domain of hisoffice.co.uk and in it we have fred.jones: fjones Now, both vacation and horde produce the line \fjones, "|/usr/local/bin/vacation fjones" This works fine, but the vacation email that gets returned has the return address of : [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've tried \fjones, "|/usr/local/bin/vacation -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] fjones" and also putting a From: line in the .vacation.msg file - same thing happens. Our forward router and transport are: userforward: driver = redirect check_local_user file = $home/.forward no_verify no_expn check_ancestor allow_filter file_transport = address_file pipe_transport = address_pipe reply_transport = address_reply Address_Pipe gets used address_pipe: driver = pipe return_output Any more thoughts anyone ?
