Great.. Think I got it working .. at least it seems to work fine in the
tests I ran. Here's how I got it to work in case someone else wants to know.

With this an Autoreply will only be sent if:

1. The sender_address is not the same as the recipient
2. The sender_address is not in the noauto file

This makes sure that users don't send to themselves and create a nasty loop
(I know that once and the once repat option help with this too) and allows
you to exclude addresses to an autoresponders, say a mailing list.

Transport:

vacation:
        driver = autoreply
        file = /usr/local/exim/autoreply/${local_part}.away
        user = nobody
        from = ${local_part}@${domain}
        to = $h_from:
        subject = "Autorespond Message - re:  $h_subject"
        once = /usr/local/exim/autorepeat
        once_repeat=60m


Director:

vacation_director:
driver=smartuser
condition = ${if and
{{!eq{$sender_address}{$local_part@$domain}}}{${lookup{$sender_address}
lsearch {/usr/local/exim/noauto} {no}{yes}}}}
require_files = /usr/local/exim/autoreply/${local_part}.away
transport = vacation
unseen

If there any comments, additions, whatever let me know .. I'd like to make a
nice robust autpresponder that is also versatile.
