"man procmailex" is your friend. There is a detailed example of how to do the equivalent of the the 'vacation' program. Search for 'vacation' BTW, you're more likely to get a friendly reception from this list if you turn off HTML text and set your line wrap to less than 80 characters. It may look pretty in Outlook Express when you send mails, but not often so nice in other readers' mail viewers. Plus, it wastes bandwidth and space for users who have to pay for both.
