Does anyone know about any autoresponders that allow one account to
autorespond AND save the message into their maildir or mbox?  All the ones
that I have tried with vpopmail seem to cause loops on the first message
when trying to deliver to one account.

As a work around, I have created a perl cgi script that users can use to
turn autoreplies on and off, but all it is really doing is deleting their
account, creating a new account, and adding an autorespond with the same
name as the old account that sends mail to the new account.  Turning it off
does the reverse.

I will release the code as GPL as soon as I add the "move messages" feature
so that it will move all messages in the mbox, or maildir to the temp
account, and all the messages from the temp account back to the recreated
user account.  The thing that has stopped this from being ready is I can't
figure out why some accounts are created in a "0" directory in vpopmail, and
others are in the root of the domain's directory.  As soon as I figure that
out or a way to parse the vpasswd file easily for the directory of the
maildir, I can add that in quickly.
