Vacation to a local user with no entry in the /etc/aliases file works fine. 
With an entry in the aliases file, there is no delivery of the vacation 
file. There is no error. There must be something documented somewhere, but 
I can not find it.
exim is in queue only due to mailscanner, so debug is more difficult, the 
'exim -d -odb -bt username' is showing the same for the two users.

testja works, ccsqjal fails.

 exim -bt testja
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> |/usr/bin/vacation testja
  transport = address_pipe
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
    <-- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  router = localuser, transport = local_delivery



exim -bt ccsqjal
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> |/usr/ucb/vacation ccsqjal
  transport = address_pipe
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
    <-- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
    <-- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  router = localuser, transport = local_delivery


grep ccsqjal /etc/aliases
Listmod: ccsqjal

 more ~ccsqjal/.forward
\Listmod, "|/usr/ucb/vacation ccsqjal"

userforward:
  driver = redirect
  check_local_user
  file = $home/.forward
 allow_filter
  no_verify
  no_expn
  check_ancestor
  file_transport = address_file
  pipe_transport = address_pipe
  reply_transport = address_reply
