Mmm ok, i am looking to make work vacation of HORDE Project with my mail
server, and this uses the .forward file into the mailbox for run the
vacation script every time a mail was recieved. I have looked to
cmusieve with dovecot 1.1.7 and i don't find it. It can be used for read
the .forward file and execute the vacation program if present in the
.forward file? Or... alternatively, what i can use?

I am googled a lot for any response but the problem is...how to search
".forward" :)

Greets,

Claudio Prono.
