really awsome, how many people dont know this simple issue and wonder by get blacklisted in rbl by backscattering/spamming
to get out of the problem, spam marked messages should filtered by a global sieve rule to a special junk folder so that it never will be honored by vacation, for pop3 users ( which will never see mail in other folders ) mails in the imap spam folder, can be down popped using the virtual plugin, a better and cheaper way is to reject known spam on the income smpt level by clamav-milter with sanesecurity antispam signatures ( but as this might not catch all spam the above sieve antisapm policy should be used ever ), for other vacation functions ( over forward script etc ) same issue ( not answer to marked spam mail ) should be honored in the reply code of the script, another possibility ist to quarantaine spam mails before getting to inbox( look amavis-new,clamav-milter ) anyway answering to spam mails should be avoided ever until most of the senders are faked
