Your timing couldn't be better. I jsut spent several days banging my
head over this one. The answer is pretty simple once you get it. VExim2
will use something like:
virtual_vacation:
driver = accept
condition = ${if and { {!match {$h_precedence:}{(?i)junk|bulk|list}} \
{eq {${lookup mysql{select users.on_vacation from users,domains \
where localpart = '${quote_mysql:$local_part}' \
and domain = '${quote_mysql:$domain}' \
and users.on_vacation = '1' \
and users.domain_id=domains.domain_id}}}{1} }} {yes}{no} }
no_verify
no_expn
unseen
transport = virtual_vacation_delivery
virtual_vacation_delivery:
driver = autoreply
from = "${local_part}@${domain}"
to = ${sender_address}
subject = "Autoreply from ${local_part}@${domain}"
text = ${lookup mysql{select vacation from users,domains \
where domain='${quote_mysql:$domain}' \
and localpart='${quote_mysql:$local_part}' \
and users.domain_id=domains.domain_id}}
Important parts to note:
Check for the Precedence header. You don't want to reply to mailing
lists or bulk mail.
Use 'unseen' so that the message is still delivered as-is to the
recipient, while the reply to sent out. Adding an 'X-Autoreply-sent'
header would be a nice touch if you wanted to.
Hope this helps!
