Hi, Johan.  I set a vacation reply in procmail based on an example I found on 
the Internet somewhere.  This is what it said:

# :0 h c
# * !^FROM_DAEMON
# * !^X-Loop: me at mydomain.org
# | (formail -r -I"Precedence: junk" \
#     -A"X-Loop: me at mydomain.org" ; \
#    echo "This is the autoresponder at myCompanyName \
#    Your message will be received on the 3rd May, on our return from holiday 
\
#    Thank you for your patience.") | $SENDMAIL -t

HTH
