Hello Steffen,

It seems I found the error:

it was this variable "submission_host"

I had to setup "submission_host=localhost"

If I'll change submission_host=medianetork.ro, vacation response did
not work.

Also, from localhost I can connect to A record of medianetork.ro .

But I have to admit, I do not have a clear idea what's the purpose of
this variable.
