@odhiambo : we may later, but currently we are dependent on this email
Hi Yassine,
This is actually what I have done now, but I want it to be more robust, if
this user quits, then I must have someone else in the group with the rule.
I have moved the rule from global sieve script to one of group members in
his local sieve script, the syntax is the same
As for the rule itself
if header :contains "to" "xyz at example.com"
{
vacation :days 1 :addresses "xyz at example.com" :subject
"Automated
Response" :from "XYZ <xyz at example.com>" text:
Dear Customer,
Greetings,
Kindly be ....etc.,
.
;
}
