Off cource
Here is the part i am talking about.


    Alerts

If you want to give the user's client some warning notification, you can 
do it just by writing it to stdout. But note:

    * Not all clients show the alerts, even though IMAP RFC requires it.
    * IMAP protocol requires CRLF (\r\n) line feeds. Some clients will
      break if you only send LF.

#!/bin/sh
if [ -f ~/.out-of-office ]; then
   printf "* OK [ALERT] You're still marked as being out of office.\r\n"
fi
exec "$@"


it is on this page.

Maybe i can check the ~/.dovecot.lda-dupes file instead.
Is that file being deleted if the out of office is disabled, or is it cleaned only?

Thanks for your time.
