I have dovecot running with sieve performing vacation autoreply.
Can sieve do sql lookups for vacation messages instead of having to do flat files in the users home directory?
No, unfortunately. To my knowledge, there is also no sieve extension that specifies such behavior. The only proposed extension that has the ability to do a background lookup is extlists, but that has nothing to do with retrieving arbitrary strings from a database and will not be useful for your purpose. If you feel that is might be commonly desired feature of the sieve language, you could ask around on the ietf-mta-filters@imc.org mailing list whether such an extension would be viable and whether someone is willing to adopt the responsibility to write a proper specification.
And then it still needs to be implemented of course... :)
or just implement a webinterface that allows editing the values in the DB and afterwards dumps a new vacation script for the user to disk
