Not quite sure what you mean by "*the* vacation filter". There is a
"subject" option to the "mail" command in the filter language. Messages
from user's personal filters should normally be from the user, not from
Mailer-daemon, though the envelope sender is always empty (<>) as befits
an auto-generated message. However, you can specify "From" for the From:
header line.

Can't really answer the question because I don't know the requirements
of Esys. But if it just requires some arguments to a pipe command, for
example, you could allow users to use the "pipe" command in their
filters.

  if <some condition> then
    pipe "/usr/whatever/bin/esys  ... whatever arguments"
  endif
