Sorry about that, I modified the article and forgot to update it for non-postfixadmin users. Please check the article again.

These pages have been a great help in setting up postfix virtual accounts with ldap. However I have been trying to follow your vacation message page and I can’t get it to work. After studying what was happening I can’t quite see how it is supposed to work. To turn the vacation message on and off postfixadmin alters the alias to cause a copy of the inbound email to be replied to. However if you are not using postfixadmin to manage postfix, it doesn’t can’t see any change in alias because the change is made to the sql server.
Have I missed something?

Sorry, I can’t help you fix this due to the complexity of setting this up. But there’s probably a misconfiguration somewhere.

am waiting for your reply.

this postfix vacation message is not working and it is not be useful if it does not respond to the mails for which it is was configured.

Pls help me with this issue..

Or advice me with some other options to replace this.

Thanks for your reply.

Have the same question, when i configure autoresponse in a user’s mail it should the tell other users that he is out & contact other person by a reply mail. but i dont have such type of auto mails or else. how do other users will know that a user is out of office when they sent a mail to him.

Is there any other way to achieve it..

Kindly help.

Thanks

That’s how it works, the user will still receive mail even if he configured an auto response so that when he returns, he can read the all mail that was sent he was out.

i have configured this postfix vacation message.

the configuration in my system is

Postfix
Dovecot
Squirrelmail
Postfix Admin

I got the autoresponse option in options of squirrelmail.
But i afraid that how it works. Am receiving mails even though i configured autoresponse for a user..

Kindly hlp.

Thank you in advance.
