automatic reply
Hi all,
I want to configure automatic message but different one for different user.
As I am not using MySQL in my postfix configuration and installation I
didn't use any other plug-in that may use MySQl too. I am using shell script
that handles sending mail (from ,to and subject) with some changes in
postfix configuration as follows:
In main.cf
transport_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/transport
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual
in /etc/postfix/virtual
t...@myserver.com t...@myserver.com
t...@myserver.com@autoreply.myserver.com
mem...@tech-vm.com mem...@tech-vm.com
mem...@tech-vm.com@autoreply.tech-vm.com
in etc/postfix/transport
autoreply.myserver.com autoreply:
autoreply.tech-vm.com autoreply:
in master.cf
autoreply unix- n n - - pipe
flags= user=vmail argv=/etc/postfix/scripts/autoreply ${sender} ${mailbox}
it's working fine with one account but when using two account postfix keeps
calling script even if I just send one mail to the auto respond mail . I
checked the script and no loop would cause this behavior .
Any one has suggestion for this issue
Regards

This sounds really neat and novel, but I think that you're inventing a new way of sending reply emails when that's already a solved problem. Why not have a transport that defines a delivery specific to procmail, then have the procmail decide which script to run, or which reply message to send. I wrote up a simple vacation application that would only send to work people, and only if I was in the To/CC, and not part of a distribution list: http://petermblair.com/2010/06/vacation-notification/ Good luck!
