Here is what I do.
If I had an "info" alias I would FIRST create a mailbox for it named info.
Then create a rule that sends everything sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to the info
mailbox.
Then create the auto response for that mailbox.

Never could figure out the forwarding thing though.

Subject: [IMail Forum] Help pls with virtual server and autoresponders


Hi,
My web hosting company has Imail and I am trying to learn how to setup the
autoresponders correctly, but I'm not having much luck. We have one main
mailbox setup with webmaster as the admin, and we have a nobody alias setup
so that all messages sent to the domain are transferred to the
webmaster.  What I would like to do is to have autoresponders for
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] etc, but quite frankly, I am stumped:) I've tried to
setup a different mailbox and named it sales and put in an autoresponder
message, but when I send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] the autoresponder
doesn't respond. My hosting company tells me to just use the vacation
message, because the autoresponder doesn't work, but since others can use
the autoresponder feature, I'm thinking mine doesn't work because it's not
setup properly. I read the knowledge base article on autoresponders and it
says the info manager in user properties allows one to setup an automated
e-mail system and the info manager must be enabled. I don't see anything in
my admin panel that says info manager  either so I guess this could be the
problem.

If someone could point out to me how to setup an autoresponder properly,
I'd  really appreciate it.
I'd be very willing to pay someone to walk me thru this process:)

Thanks,
Diane
