Well, the REPLY_TIMEOUT defines the interval in which a reply mail is send to a unique sender address again. If you set REPLY_TIMEOUT to 60 ( seconds ) and [EMAIL PROTECTED] sends you more than one message in the period of 60 seconds a reply to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is only send for the first mail and again a mail coming in after 60 seconds. An interval of 1 would send out a reply at nearly every mail coming in. From my point of view that is not a good idea. Default in qmail-ldap afaik is one week ( 604800 seconds ) which fits well as a vacation reminder along with a replytext which names the time some again will look into the mail. But to answer your question about a patch: You may take a look at http://marc.info/?l=qmail-ldap&m=122296091013966&w=2 I've posted a patch which includes REPLY_TIMEOUT as mailReplyInterval into the ldap on 02.10.2008 to this list.
