I've discovered, that mailbot or some other program in the Postfix-courier-maildrop chain removes environment variables and sendmail cannot find the mail recipients. Problem can be solve if you specify a '-t' at sendmail arguments. (this means sendmail try to read recipients from mail header not from environment variables.) And make a -f 'senderaddress' arg too. For example: /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -f 'user@domain'

Thanks for Earnshaw for the "helpful" response. :-)

You should *not* be using mailbot for vacation messages. You are crapping up my auto-delete everything from .hu X-MAILBOT folder.

Long after it got rejected by RBL and greylists.

Tonni:

Brings up a good point.

What is the "most correct" or "best" way to generate vacation messages?

I've always wanted to implement this functionality. But the way I would want to do it is to have an incoming message to a user get replied to once and only once. And of course, not respond to mailing lists with the vacation message.

Thanks, Chris
