If you're using qmail and have qmailadmin, you can use the "Vacation"

Sounds like a handy feature but I am using Postfix... :(

Does Postfix offer this functionality ?


I hate to give the same sort of answer, but the Postfix based how-to was never very fancy. However I still believe Postfix is the easiest and best MTA to use for a virtual system. It's just that you should use PostfixAdmin as the base. Migrating from the Gentoo How-to to a PostfixAdmin based system can be painful, different db schema and other things, but having an easy to use interface to add users, domains, aliases, etc AND being able to delegate domain control to power users has been fantastic.

PostfixAdmin supports vacation as well and users can manage it themselves. You can even integrate the vacation into Horde as well if you're willing to muck about in the internals.

However as a low tech solution you could do something like the following:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] is a real account

create this in your alias table
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> [EMAIL PROTECTED],vacation

Then setup a general vacation program as user vacation on the system with the proper regex stuff and tracking of addresses it's has already responded to.
