Hi all,

I'm dealing with a bit of an issue here.  Forgive me if
I don't use the proper verbiage, I'm just starting out.

We have qmail installed, I gather that the set-up is
pretty standard.  We have specific domains and
within those folders, there are sub-folders for each
user's email address.  Mine is:

/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/

We also have a great deal of aliases, which in turn 
point to our specific and personal mail directories.

For example .qmail-nick has the following line in it:

/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/Maildir/

Again, forgive me if I'm giving redundant information.

Anyway, my problem is that I need to do is set up an autoresponder
that will do the following when an email is sent to 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 - Respond with a message created by yours truly
 - Drop the email into my maildir
 - Allow me to check my email and see the message in my
   inbox.

This seems simple enough, right?

Well, I'm having massive problems actually getting it working.

I've tried creating a .qmail-nick:papageorge file and placing the
following line:

| /usr/local/bin/autorespond 10000 5 
|/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick-vacation-message 
|/home/vpopmail/domains/marketingtips.com/nick.papageorge/

AND I've even tried the same with adding:

&[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I've also tried using the web interface to create an autoresponder, 
which creates a NICK.PAPAGEORGE/ directory and, guess what,
it doesn't work..

I'm banging my head against a wall, and I need to get an autoresponder
up and working for the owner of our company (see the importance and
dire need to get this working?).

Any help will be overwhelmingly appreciated.
