I have in /etc/mail/smrsh/vacation -> /usr/bin/vacation
I also copy /usr/lib/sm.bin/vacation.sendmail to /etc/mail/smrsh/
Since vacation is another package, vacation is installed.
I change my .forward to use /etc/mail/smrsh/
I try this
\user, "|/etc/mail/smrsh/vacation.sendmail user"
and this
\user, "|/etc/mail/smrsh/vacation user"
But nothing happend only the mailstats change! No reply message. I test
using others mails accounts.
In mailstats i get:
M msgsfr bytes_from msgsto bytes_to msgsrej msgsdis msgsqur Mailer
0 0 0K 48 1535K 0 0 0 prog
thanks
