Here is a script that I wrote some time ago that does a auto-reply.
You could try and work this into the way you are presently doing it.
You may have to make some modifications to fit your needs.

Subject: Auto reply to request
We have an admin schedule that runs a script to lable and checkin scratch
tapes from the bulk loader on our tape library. The only problem is that
when the script runs, it generates a request to fill the bulk loader and
reply. Since this happens after hours, someone has to either dial-in or let
the job fail. Does anyone know of a way to auto-reply to this request or
even better suppress the request? Any help would be appreciated.
