by In response to requests for the "vacation" program: "vacation" seems
to be standard in the Berkeley Unix release (try the man page to see
if you have it.) Also, here is a message I received from Tim
Theisen:
bsd sources.
You can find it on ftp.uu.net in the directory bsd-sources/usr.bin/vacation.
It keeps track of addresses and only responds once per week. The time is
settable. It does not respond to mail from root, MAILER-DEMON, etc. It
only repsonds to mail explicitly to you. It replies with a message that
you have constructed which can have whatever special headers you desire.
Hope this helps, ...Tim
