But for virtual domains this will not work. I did investigate this a while ago, but have completely abandoned it. Out-of-office messages are bad anyways: - They spam - They tell an attacker that your account is most likely to be unused for for a while - Social engineering: an attacker knows when you leave and return, where you are and often what you are doing there... Mail forwarding seems like a better solution or equipping people with mobile mail clients (most cellphones has this by now). _______________________________________________ tsl-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trustix.org/mailman/listinfo/tsl-discuss
