Thanks, I think I am already doing what you are suggesting, but not sure. Here is what my sieve script looks like (spam stuff makes no difference to vacation problem): # This script has been automatically generated by avelsieve # (Sieve Mail Filters Plugin for Squirrelmail) # Warning: If you edit this manually, then the changes will not # be reflected in the users' front-end! #AVELSIEVE_VERSIONYTo0OntzOjU6Im1ham9yIjtpOjE7czo1OiJtaW5vciI7aTo5O3M6NzoicmVsZWFzZSI7aTo3O3M6Njoic3RyaW5nIjtzOjU6IjEuOS43Ijt9 #AVELSIEVE_CREATED1116909362 #AVELSIEVE_MODIFIED1271887955 require ["fileinto","envelope","reject","vacation","imapflags","relational","comparator-i;ascii-numeric","regex","notify"]; if header :contains "X-Spam-Flag" "YES" { fileinto "INBOX.spam"; } if true { vacation :days 1 :addresses ["maria@xxxxxxxxxxxxx","maria@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"] text: This is an automated reply; I am testing the vacation messages. You can safely ignore this message, I am currently checking email, and will get your message. thanks, maria . ; } So, I think I am doing what you are saying, since I have both email addresses in the addresses section, or are you saying there is someplace else that forwarded addresses should go? thanks, maria > > Message: 3 > Date: Fri, 23 Apr 2010 13:47:50 +0200 > From: Michael Menge <michael.menge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Subject: Re: sieve problem with vacation filter again. > To: info-cyrus@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > Message-ID: <20100423134750.20064db2451ml2au@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" > > Hello, > > in sieve there are some restrictions for vacations to prevent > mailloops and replys to mails not sent directly to the mailaddress > of the user. > > The vacation rule has the option ":addresses" to specify additional > addresses which belong to the user.
