My apologies for a seeming hijack of this thread. I have the same issue also.
The vacation portion of my sieve script is:
# load the necessary components
# fileinto is for filtering
# vacation is ... well ... just that
require ["fileinto", "vacation", "imapflags"];
# save a copy of inbound messages
setflag "\\Seen";
fileinto "INBOX.backup";
removeflag "\\Seen";
# main filtering rules
if header :contains "Subject" "testing vacation" {
vacation :days 1 :subject "test vac" "I'm testing, ok?!";
setflag "\\Answered";
fileinto "INBOX.howard";
} elsif address :contains ["to","from","cc","bcc"] ["@mac.com","admin15@xxxxxxxxxxxxx"] {
...
}
I am transitioning my users from pop3 to imap4/cyrus. Currently I have most users
on imap4 using a wierd mail route. The mail comes in, is sent to the pop3
server, a crontab entry for each user pulls the mail with fetchmail, sends each
message to procmail, and procmail eventually uses deliver.
I'm testing eliminating procmail for the internal sieve scripting on my account.
I cannot eliminate fetchmail until all my users are migrated to imap4. This is
just background data.
Currently my sieve works well for filing the various messages. As mentioned above I
cannot get the vacation portion to work. When a message arrives with a subject
of 'testing vacation' the message is filed into the folder 'howard' but not reply
is received on the external, sending account. I have waited several days between
messages to get around the ':days 1' parameter in the script above.
I have local6 sent to a separate file, though I do not see any extra messages.
I am using the current rpms on fedora core 5.
I know sieve is working because my messages do get filed according to the full
sieve script.
