From: Benjamin Lewis Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Date: Wed, 15 May 1996 17:30:38 -0500 Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I know that none of the rest of you ever take vacations :), but wouldn't a little fancy footwork with the "vacation" program do the trick? You could forward their mail through vacation to a dummy user that forwards it to /dev/null or something. The .vacation.msg might indicate that the user is unable to receive e-mail at that address. Am I missing a vital clue from the man page? -Ben -- Benjamin Lewis (blewis@vet.vet.purdue.edu)
