If you mean an "out of office autoreply" for an individual email address, I use the vacation program and procmail for my work address although I've never used the Linux version. vacation seems to do the job. You want to be extra super sure that the alert does not: - reply to list mail (slug as a whole doesn't want to get messages telling us you aren't reading your email) - reply to senders of list mail (a poster to slug doesn't care that one of 600 subscribers is away from their mail) - replies along the Return-Path rather than to the From address As far as I know, vacation does all this stuff, but always worth checking :) -Mary -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
