What I'd like is to be able to set a company (domain-wide) auto-response
for when our company is closed for holidays... more specifically, extra
holidays (often the boss will close an extra day for an extra long
weekend). He has asked more than once about setting an auto-response for
*everyone* during these periods...
I would be very careful about doing that. You will wind up on the spam
blocker lists & have a hell of a time getting back off them.
If it works exactly the same as normal vacation messages - doesn't auto-reply
to any type of list or other auto generated content, and only replies once
per day per sender (and for this company wide responder if the same sender
sends to more than one of our addresses, they only get ONE response, not one
for each recipient - why would doing this at the company/domain level be any
different?
When you do this at delivery time (via Sieve), the sender gets one
vacation response per recipient once in the configured period.
If you setup a domain wide vacation responder at incoming level (aka
postfix), the sender might get one central response and one per recipient,
who setup a resonse on his/her own. (Say, because s/he is ill, on holiday,
missed the global vacation setting or whatever.)
Well, besides, it might be a nice extension for a global Sieve script, to
choose from a dupe database, usually ~user/.dovecot.lda-dupes, _and_ the
information, whether or not the current script already resonded. Then you
could add an global "after" script, that makes the usual no-respond tests
(bulk, spam, ...) and if no response by current script alreade and use a
domain-wide lda-dupes file.
