its not been said many times. all i found was that many times ppl asked how it works or havin problems with it. also the "documentation" does not sayin that its workin nor that its not workin. just no words about auto reply. but the mysql scripts do install the auto_replies table so admins may think that its a working part of dbmail... ;)

however, its working here too but the fact that sort.c never finds an address (parsed from from or reply-to field). so the - for me important - question is: where must be the form or reply-to field. in the original mail TO the address which has autoreplies enabled?
or in the body field of the database table?
must the form or reply-to have sum special kind of syntax?!
is it caseSenSitive?

im asking since dbmail just gets the mailbody from database but fails then to parse/recognize an address where it can send to, and stops.

so any help would be great...

Actually, the autoreplies implementation is broken. It's been said
many many times on this list NOT to use the dbmail implementation.
Most people who NEED it make their own implementation. I mysql
whipped up a short python script and added a new table for handling
them. If you want to go that route, I'm sure theres plenty of people
on this list that could give you examples of what they did.

anyone?!

this is essential... its not covered by any existing howto readme - any documentation. since its existing in dbmail and sum use it it would be very helpfull if sumone answers and gives a hint.

however, best would be to include into the documentation of dbmail... ;)

anyone?!

Hi,

i have insert an auto reply row into the dbmail_auto_replies table.
dbmail-lmtpd does state that its working so far.
BUT
it pipe.c never finds a from or reply-to field so it stops in the middle saying it has not found any address.

so the question is:
where must that field be?! in the AUTO_REPLY body (in the row)?
if so, what exactly syntax i have to ensure?

has it to be served by the incoming mail?
if so, why does pipe.c acutally not detect it (Its caseSensitive From: or Reply-To: but THAT depends on the used email-client!)

best regards

Simon
