SUMMARY
Autoresponders are read from the file AUTORESPOND.CFG
which is located in the users mailbox directory
(Postoffices\[postoffice]\mailroot\[mailbox]\). The existence of this file
determines whether the autoresponder is enabled. The file is a plain text file
of a message in RFC822 format. When an autoresponder fires, this file is read,
and the following header lines are added to the
message:
To:
Precedence: bulk
Date:
Then MailEnable will
then copy across all the contents of the AUTORESPOND.CFG file. So if you wish to
set the reply to or other headers you will need to do this through the
autoresponder file. You must make sure you include your own delimiter to
separate the header from the email contents. An example file would look
like:
From: "Auto Response"
Subject:
[AUTORESPONSE] - Automatic Mailbox Response
Reply-To:
Return-Path:
Thanks for
emailing me. I will reply ASAP
You may notice a file called
AUTORESPOND.CF_ in the same directory. This file is used by the administration
program and the webmail to store the last used autoresponder. So when it is
disabled, enabling it won't require the file to be recreated. Be aware that any
change in the administration program of the autoresponder configuration will
cause the file to be overwritten.
Autoresponders will not reply to messages that have been flagged as bulk, system generated, or junk.
