here's my transport:

vacation_message:
  driver = autoreply
  once_repeat = 7d
  once = /var/lib/exim/tripnote/TRIPNOTE_USER=\
             ${md5:TRIPNOTE_SUBJECT TRIPNOTE_BODY}.db
  to = $sender_address
  from = $local_part@$domain
  subject = ${rfc2047:Auto: TRIPNOTE_SUBJECT (was: $h_subject: )}
  headers = \
    Auto-Submitted: auto-replied\n\
    MIME-Version: 1.0\n\
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n\
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
  text = TRIPNOTE_BODY


the TRIPNOTE_FOO are macros which expand to a database lookup for the
real value. note that since I use $h_subject, I need to set the global
option

headers_charset = UTF-8

so that $h_subject: is decoded to the same charset as the subject stored
in the database. also note how the once-database is named -- it means
that whenever the user changes the message, a sender will receive a new
copy even if he already got one yesterday. a periodic cron job deletes
the "once" database files which haven't been modified in 7 days.

(yes, I know it's a bug that this sends raw 8bit even to hosts not
supporting 8BITMIME, since Exim doesn't support down-converting
content-transfer encodings.)
