Hi there.
In the Qmail docs somewhere (the man page I think) it tells you that you
need a line like this in your .qmail file:
| preline /usr/bin/vacation -r infinite -a felix taff
The preline bit is what tells qmail that you're piping into a program,
since it only adds the From line on final delivery. -r is something about
how many times it will reply to each message - perversely the option here
means it will only reply once to a message from any user. The -a option
specifies alternate usernames for me, so it doesn't send myself a
message! :)
Hope this helps,
- -Taff.
