This is the way i did it using a filter this is my first go and probably
could be cleaned up a bit.

Create a addresslist:

addresslist auto_reply_support = /etc/exim/auto-reply/auto-reply-support

Set the filter file and filter transport Parameters:

system_filter = /etc/exim/filter-exim
system_filter_reply_transport = support_auto_reply

I created a seperate ACL becasue i had to reply to many different email
addresses with different mail messages.

acl_autoreply:

  warn   recipients     = +auto_reply_support
         message        = X-auto-reply-support: YES
         add_header     = X-auto-reply-support: YES


accept

Here is the ACL bits in the Recipeint ACL:

accept hosts          = !+relay_from_hosts
         acl            = acl_autoreply


the Transport:

support_auto_reply:
driver = autoreply
user = exim

and finally the cotents of /etc/exim/filter-exim i filter by the header
a attached via the ACL. Notice that i attach the message as well at this
time. and remove the header i added to the message as cleanup.

if $h_X-auto-reply-support: is "YES" then
mail
to $reply_address
from support@???
expand file /etc/exim/auto-reply/auto-reply-support.msg.txt
log /var/log/exim/auto-reply-support.log
subject "Auto-Reply from Mydomain Customer Support"
headers remove "X-auto-reply-support:"
endif

Hope this works for you

Exim actually forwards all mails to an exchange server.

I would like when a user test@??? received a mail, an
automatic
respond send him :

Sorry the user to trie to join is no longer available. Thanks .....



My idea is to create a router like :



user_leave:
  driver = accept
  domains = +local_domains
  # user to put away message in a file called vacation.msg
  require_files = /root/user_leave.msg
  # do not reply to errors or lists or with ADV in the subject
  condition =  ${if or { \
                {match {$receiver_address} {test@???} \
                } {no} {yes}}
  no_expn
  # do not reply to errors or bounces or lists
  senders = ! ^.*-request@.*:\
            ! ^bounce-.*@.*:\
            ! ^.*-bounce@.*:\
            ! ^owner-.*@.*:\
            ! ^postmaster@.*:\
            ! ^webmaster@.*:\
            ! ^listmaster@.*:\
            ! ^mailer-daemon@.*:\
            ! ^root@.*
  transport = user_leave_transport
  unseen
  no_verify


######################################################################
#                      TRANSPORTS CONFIGURATION                      #
#...


user_leave_transport:
   driver = autoreply
   file =/root/user_leave.msg
   file_expand
   from = $local_part@???
   to = $sender_address
   subject = "Re: $h_subject"
   # text that will be included in message above
   text = "This is an automatic reply.  Please feel free to send
additional\n\
           mail, as only this one notice will be generated.\n\
           ================================================\n\n"



But of course it is not working.
I don t know if i need to create a local user to do this ,
if $receiver_address exit or if it is recipients, if i can place a
message
in /root/user_leave.msg or in /home/exim or /home

Thanks for you help.
