Vacation will NOT affect the implicit keep, so if no other action
(fileinto, redirect, discard) is applied to the message, then it WILL be
kept in addition to sending out a vacation response.
If fileinto/redirect/discard don't work in conjunction with vacation,
then this is a bug.
If vacation does an explicit keep in the presence of
fileinto/redirect/discard, then this is a bug.
I don't ever recall seeing these bugs in 1.6.22+. I did fix some
vacation bugs in 1.6.25 (beta), maybe these are fixed as well.
I just checked this with 2.0.12, and it all works as it is supposed to.
I tested the following scripts with these results:
vacation :addresses "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "test 1";
RESULT: response sent, message kept in INBOX.
vacation :addresses "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "test 2";
discard;
RESULT: response sent, NO message kept in INBOX.
vacation :addresses "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "test 3";
redirect "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
RESULT: response sent, message redirected, NO message kept in INBOX.
vacation :addresses "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" "test 4";
redirect "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
keep;
RESULT: response sent, message redirected, message kept in INBOX.
