Don't know if it's exactly what you want, but I couldn't use a standaard
Perl vacation script, for various reasons. So I wrote my own very small
vacation routine that does all that we want - user goes away, 1 message
sent to sender after checking for personal mail, user comes back and
gets list of who's been sent a vacation message. If it'll help, I'l mail
a gzip, or you can pick it up from out ftp server.
