You do NOT want to setup an autoresponder like vacation! The
FEATURE method that Giorgos explained is the correct way to do it.
If your not using sendmail and your MTA cannot issue an error in
this fashion, you do not want to mess around with this.
What happens with autoresponders is that spammers inadvertantly
trigger them. As a result the autoresponses get sent to thousands of
victims who had their names forged to the spammers message. Some
of those victim addresses are spamtrap addesses.
Oh, crap! I hadn't thought of that. Good thinking there Ted :)
There is no "inadvertantly" about it. If spammers find an open relay
or an open bounce they exploit it. And you get blacklisted.
