From: Kind@edb.uib.no Date: Sun, 2 Aug 1998 15:24:05 +0200 [Syntax converted for Exim 4 by PH, 06-Dec-2001. Unchecked.] This is how I have configured a PP-inspired vacationnote, there is (was?) such a feature in PP. The user makes a file "tripnote" in his/her homedirectory, the message is passed to the sender once with a short leading text. ############ # TRANSPORT vacation_reply: driver = autoreply file = $home/tripnote file_expand log = $home/tripnote.log once = $home/tripnote.db from = vacation@yourdomain.org to = $sender_address subject = "Re: $h_subject" text = "\ Dear $h_from:\n\n\ This is an automatic reply. Feel free to send additional\n\ mail, as only this one notice will be generated. The following\n\ is a prerecorded message, sent for $local_part@yourdomain.org:\n\ ====================================================\n\n\ " # ROUTER user_vacation: driver = accept check_local_user require_files = $local_part:$home/tripnote no_verify senders = !^.*-request@.* : !^owner-.*@.* : !^postmaster@.* : \ ! ^listmaster@.* : !^mailer-daemon@.* transport = vacation_reply unseen
