Take a look a this: http://vacation.sourceforge.net/
I don't think I'd recommend that software, since it isn't being maintained any longer (2 1/2 years) and I don't think it has robust support for mailing lists. Most of the early vacation programs would just reply to bulk messages, which could cause the list software to mailbomb itself with the automatic responses. I don't trust users to unsubscribe from lists before turning on their vacation message...
I prefer this one:
<http://untroubled.org/qmail-autoresponder/>
since it supports rate limiting, the vast majority of mailing lists, etc. It works only with qmail only, though. It's probably possible to use with any LDA which support delivery scripts (e.g. .forward files).
