Hi folks,

I've got my mail server set up as a RH7.3+errata using exim as my MTA.

Everything works great except for the vacation program (none of my users use 
mailing lists).

If I set vacation for a user, everything appears to work fine as far as the 
EXIM logs are concerned, the message gets to the user's mailbox, and the 
originator does not receive any error email.

However, vacation does not actually generate a reply.  Anyone got any ideas 
why?

exim.conf extract:

address_pipe:
  driver = pipe
  user = exim
  group = mail
  return_output

/home/myuser/.forward:

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

/home/myuser/.vacation.msg:

Subject: away from my mail

I will not be reading my mail for a while.
Your mail concerning "$SUBJECT"
will be read when I'm back.
