Hi,
Let me preface this with the statement that I'm a Linux/qmail beginner...
With that it in mind, I have successfuly set up qmail, including virtual
hosting on my Redhat 6 (Intel) box. I've been trying to set up an
auto-responder, and have learned about the vacation program. I installed
"vacation" program written by a fellow named "Igor" (available here:
<http://nutria.life.uiuc.edu/igorl/ISL/programs/past.html>) which is
apparently based on the original vacation program (with which I have no
experience).
So, I set up my .qmail file to look something like this:
-------
|preline /usr/var/local/vacation ted
&ttl
-------
Normally, since this is a virtual host .qmail file, it consists only of the
forward, to the real account "ttl" (and that part works fine).
Unfortunately, it doesn't work. It's apparently getting hung up in the
vacation program, since I don't get the mail either. I don't know where any
error msgs might be appearing, so I'm stuck.
btw, running vacation from the command line works (at least to the extent
that it creates the vacation.msg file, and the .forward file, which I don't
use)
Should I be using a different auto-responder? Or, should this be working?
thanks very much for any help you can provide!
