Yes.  Run "qmail-autoresponder -h" for a complete option listing.

Not yet, but I suppose this would be a good idea.

i installed version 0.92.
it sends the reply and ignores the message when repeated immediately,
but it does not quote the original message.

can it do that?
and if so, can it shorten the original message to lets say 100 K or
something?

thanks,
wolfgang

The README says:
Put "|qmail-autoresponder MESSAGE_FILE DIRECTORY" into your
".qmail" file before other delivery instructions.
Your .qmail-default file will not work.

The README says:
MESSAGE_FILE is a pre-formatted response, including headers
Your message file does not contain headers.

qmail-autoresponder
Rate-limited autoresponder for qmail
Bruce Guenter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Version 0.91
2000-07-18

This is a simple program to automatically respond to emails.

It is based on some ideas (but little or no code) from a similar
autoresponder by Eric Huss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, and ideas presented
in the qmail mailing list.

Features:
- Limits rate of automatic responses (defaults to a maximum of one
  message every hour).
- Will not respond to nearly every type of mailing list or bulk email.
- Will not respond to bounce messages or MAILER-DAEMON.
- Bounces looping messages.
- Can copy original message into response.
- Uses links in the rate-limiting data directory to preserve inodes.

Usage:

Put "|qmail-autoresponder MESSAGE_FILE DIRECTORY" into your ".qmail"
file before other delivery instructions.  MESSAGE_FILE is a
pre-formatted response, including headers, and DIRECTORY is the
directory into which rate-limiting information will be stored.
