Thank you Stephan
Sorry for the typo: I (badly) extracted part of my script, that is
generated by the managesieve plugin of Roundcube.

As for the RCF, vacation responses gets triggered only if the :address
contains the recipient of the message. Since the two vacation rules contain
different recipient address they wouldn't be triggered at the same time.

Manually editing that script would break the possibility to edit it via the
Roundcube plugin, and I can't absolutely teach every user of my company how
to connect via ssh and edit that script.
So, it's a big pity that is not possible to have two (or more) concurrent
vacation scripts: I'll have to manage every user by hand.

Thank you anyway for your explanation
