If we go down that road, we'll probably need at least two seperate inputs, one for the alias-normalised, and one for the publicly advertised email address. Hence, when the autoreply is generated, it comes from <firstname.lastn...@somerealdomain.com> rather than <ar-flastn...@localhost> or whatever it's become normalised to. That said, it's at least one step further down the road to a working solution. At the moment I'm hacking at roundcube's sieverules plugin to try and draw up the functionality without requiring any changes in the MTA/LDA, but a more generic solution would be very welcome since it'd provide protection from the next inevitable roundcube security hole. .. alternatively a plaintext dict of "fromaddress alias1 aliasN" would be clumsy but easily scriptable to update from any LDAP/MySQL/sqlite database...
