It has quite nice features, but two:

1)
- - Check SENDER rate
   - Don't respond if:
     - SENDER exceded the rate limit (defaults to 1 message every hour)

I'd say that one message per vacation is enough. :-)

2) It responses to BCC'ed messages as well, as 
http://untroubled.org/qmail-autoresponder/procedure.txt does not state 
that the recipient must be part of To/CC.

I use sendmail's vacation. It has its own limits, when it comes to the way 
to construct the message and to detect the BCC case, one needs to 
whitelist all recipient addresses. Also, it uses a DB database.
