Hi, I?m facing here a wierd problem: We have a vacation messaging system using sieve. When activated the system forwards incomming messages to a given address and sents an out of office reply to the sender. This works like a charm when the mail is addressed to mailbox@domain. When the incomming mail ist addressed to alias.to.mailbox@domain the mail is delivered to the mailbox, it is forwarded to the given reciepient but there is no auto reply going out to the sender! Our setup: CentOS 5.2 + postfix 2.5.6 + dovecot 1.1.11 with domain and accounts stored in a mysql database. The script:
require ["fileinto", "vacation"]; redirect "mailbox2@domain"; keep; vacation :days 1 :subject "Out of Office reply" " The auto reply text.
";
Any advice is welcome,
You have to add the alias addresses to the :addresses list. For example:
require ["fileinto", "vacation"]; redirect "mailbox2@domain"; keep; vacation :days 1 :subject "Out of Office reply" :addresses ["1st.alias@domain", "2nd.alias@domain"] " The auto reply text. ";

First of all thanks for the hint, it works. Second, nice to see the discussion, we did have the same here at my location when I told my boss about the reason for the error...
