Sorry for double posting but I never got any replies the first time
around...
If anyone has ANY comments on this please make them, as if I don't get any
responses I will take it as no one being interested and my problem being a
non issue to others (and thus if i find a solution or right a new autoreply
I won't have to GPL it)

Once again...

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.

The perl script does havea flaw, it deletes all hte messages that have not
been "popped" out, so I was going to work on making it 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 write in a way to parse the vpasswd file easily for the directory of
the
maildir.  Any ideas about the "0" directory?
