Not unless you actually post associated log events and show your
related config files.  You might also approach the maildrop mailing
list since it seems like the problem is there and not with the plugin,
which only creates the messages (but you might first do some more
research and I'll bet you can solve the problem with tips already on
that mailing list).

Note that the OP is not using the vacation program.  She is using
courier maildrop, with mailbot to do the autoresponding, at least if
she used the same configuration suggested by the plugin README.
