In the mean time, I want to have this e-mail delivered in my box. I found that vacation is on this purpose. Be informed that I am not very familiar with .forward files. My .forward file contains below line: \ek, "|/usr/bin/vacation ek" I get e-mails in my box. Problem is that my system do not send ~/.vacation.msg as a reply. If I remove "\ek, " part in the .forward file. It just reply to mail, and I loose the e-mail sent to me. I tried several combinations like: --- \ek "|/usr/bin/vacation ek" --- "|/usr/bin/vacation ek" \ek --- None solved the problem. System either reply or deliver incoming mail to my box. Any help is appreciated. -- Ertan Kucukoglu ertank@softhome.net
