dovecot - Nov 2012 - Vacation messages come from POSTMASTER, not user

Problem : All vacation autoreplies come from the postmaster address.
Expected behavior : vacation notice comes from the user who set the 
vacation.
Platform : Dovecot 2.1.7 on Debian Squeeze ( See below for example 
reply, sieve script and dovecot -n output)

Any help appreciated!


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sieve script used:

if true
{
	vacation :days 2 :subject "Out of Office" "I am currently out of
the
office";
	stop;
}

at my knowledge, does not work that way ,yet,
guess what you want, might work with invoking external script via sieve

wait for other responses , special stefan might give better answer about
sieve

Why have you set this? Normally vacation will refuse to respond to a
message which doesn't have your address in one of the recipient header
fields; in fact the standard says that it MUST NOT respond unless this
is the case. This setting turns that check off, in which case Pigeonhole
will send a vacation response (despite the standard) but sends it from
Postmaster. I assume this is done for privacy reasons, since the person
the vacation response is being sent to doesn't necessarily know the user
who set the vacation exists, or what their address might be.

If you send a message with the user's email address in To:, do you get a
vacation response From: the correct address?
