sieve vacation to an alias group

[Monis Monther]

Because its not actually a vacation, we are using it as an auto response
feature.

Its a support group that should auto respond to the customer automatically
for the first time.

If there is another method to achieve this, then we are more than happy to
change our setup.

Thanks
Monis
