What particular type of autoreply? A "I'm on vacation" autoreply? In
which case, we use this:

vacation_transport:
  driver =  autoreply
  user = ${local_part}
  once = ${home}/vacation-once.db
  once_repeat = 2d
  file = ${home}/vacation.txt
  log  = ${home}/vacation-log.txt
  return_message = true
  text = "\
 ------                                                ------\n\n\
 This message was automatically generated by email software\n\
 The delivery of your message has not been affected.\n\n\
 This message will be repeated no more often than every 2 days.\n\n\
 ------                                                ------\n\n"
  #to = "${sender_address}"
  to = "${if def:h_Errors-To: {$h_Errors-To:} {$sender_address}}"
  subject =  "${if def:h_Subject: {Autoreply: $h_Subject:} {I am on vacation}}"



# This director handles automagic vacation messages
vacation:
  driver = localuser
  transport = vacation_transport
  require_files = ${home}/vacation.txt
  unseen
  no_expn
  no_verify
  user = ${local_part}
  # do not reply to errors or lists
  senders = "! ^.*-request@.*:\
              ! ^owner-.*@.*:\
              ! ^.*-admin@.*:\
              ! ^postmaster@.*:\
              ! ^listmaster@.*:\
              ! ^mailer-daemon@.*"
  # do not reply to errors and bounces or lists
  condition = "${if or {{match {$h_precedence:} {(?i)junk|bulk|list}} \
                        {eq {$sender_address} {}}} {no} {yes}}"
