Subject: [exim] Problems with Sieve Filters and vacation messages
Hello all,

We've deployed a new mail architecture which includes exim and some of the horde suite products (IMP, Ingo, Kronolith...). We wanted to use server side filters, so exim was configured to use .forward files to define all users mail filter rules. Those files are automatically generated by Ingo, which creates them by using the Sieve format, and all of them run ok except for the vacation messages. You can find attached one of those filter rules files:
# Sieve Filter
# Generated by Ingo (http://www.horde.org/ingo/) (September 7, 2006, 2:46 pm)

require "vacation";

# Vacation
vacation :days 1 :addresses "XXX@???" :subject "OUT OF OFFICE" "I AM OUT OFF OFFICE TODAY.
";

The problem is that exim doesn't seem to recognize this kind of vacation rules (exim doesn't reply with the vacation message to the sender), and we think that maybe it has to do with the autoreply transport section, we're not sure ¿Do we have to add more routers/transports in out exim configuration?

userforward:
driver = redirect
condition = ${if eq {}{${lookup ldap {ldap://XXX?mailMessageStore?sub?(&(|(
mail=${local_part}@${domain})(mailAlternateAddress=${local_part}@${domain}))(objectclass=person))}}}{no}{yes <mailto:mail=${local_part}@${domain})(mailAlternateAddress=${local_part}@${domain}))(objectclass=person))}}}{no}{yes> }}
user = vmail
group = vmail
file = ${lookup ldap {ldap://XXX?mailMessageStore?sub?(|(mail=${local_part
}@${domain})(mailAlternateAddress=${local_part}@${domain <mailto:}@${domain})(mailAlternateAddress=${local_part}@${domain> }))} {$value} fail }/Maildir/forward
allow_filter
no_verify
no_expn
check_ancestor
directory_transport = userforward_delivery
file_transport = userforward_delivery
pipe_transport = address_pipe
reply_transport = address_reply
ignore_enotdir

userforward_delivery:
driver = appendfile
maildir_format = true
directory = ${sg {$address_file}{(^[Ii][Nn][Bb][Oo][Xx])(.*)\/*}{${lookup ldap {ldap://XXX?mailMessageStore?sub?(|(mail=${local_part}@${domain})(mailAlternateAddress=${local_part}@${domain}))}{$value <mailto:mail=${local_part}@${domain})(mailAlternateAddress=${local_part}@${domain}))}{$value> }
fail}/Maildir/\$2/}}
create_directory = true
delivery_date_add
envelope_to_add
return_path_add
user = vmail
group = vmail
maildir_tag = ,S=$message_size
directory_mode = 0700
mode = 0660

address_reply:
driver = autoreply

Thanks in advance for your help,

Javier
