vacation program

[Alex Monaghan <monaghaa@royalmail.co.uk>]

Help,

I think there was recently a discussion about this, but I 
deleted it as I wasn't interested at the time.

I'm looking to provide a simple system generated Email reply to 
a specific address (availability@mydomain.com). I wish to send a 
simple message :- Thankyou for your enquiry I'm available in 3 
days time ......

I've experimented with the vacation program supplied on the 
Debian 1.2 CD, but when modifying the .forward file as indicated 
in the vacation man page, I get a pipe error (whatever program I 
try and forward to).

I'm using smail (as supplied on 1.2)

Am I missing something obvious ?

Can I do this via an alias from smail ? 

Is there a HOWTO ?
