I'm running RH7.3 2.4.18-3 with sendmail. I need to use the vacation
program, and am having difficulty making it work. How should the .forward
file look in the users directory? I have:

\username, "|/usr/bin/vacation username"

per the RedHat website.

Anyone have any input or maybe alternate ( simple ) methods to implement a
vacation or auto-reply "thang" ?

Thanks -D

It can be done with procmail.
