For example, your -.I .forward -file might have: -.IP -\eeric, "|/usr/bin/vacation -a allman eric" -.PP -which would send messages to you (assuming your login name was eric) and -reply to any messages for -``eric'' -or -``allman''. -.PP -Available options: -.TP -.BI \-a " alias" -Handle messages for -.I alias -in the same manner as those received for the user's -login name. -.TP -.BI \-C " cfpath" -Specify pathname of the sendmail configuration file. -This option is ignored if -.B \-U -is specified. -This option defaults to the standard sendmail configuration file, -located at /etc/mail/sendmail.cf on most systems. -.TP -.B \-d -Send error/debug messages to stderr instead of syslog. -Otherwise, fatal errors, such as calling -.B vacation -with incorrect arguments, or with non-existent -.IR login s, -are logged in the system log file, using -syslog(8). -This should only be used on the command line, not in your -.I .forward -file. -.TP -.BI \-f " filename" -Use -.I filename -as name of the database instead of -.IR ~/.vacation.db -or -.IR ~/.vacation.{dir,pag} . -Unless the -.I filename -starts with / it is relative to ~. -.TP -.B \-i -Initialize the vacation database files.

The default is one week. -An interval of ``0'' or -``infinite'' -(actually, any non-numeric character) will never send more than -one reply. -The -.B \-r -option should only be used when the vacation database is initialized -(see -.B \-i -above). -.TP -.BI \-s " address" -Use -.I address -instead of the incoming message sender address on the -.I From -line as the recipient for the vacation message. -.TP -.BI \-t " time" -Ignored, available only for compatibility with Sun's -vacation program. -.TP -.B \-U -Do not attempt to lookup -.I login -in the password file. -The -f and -m options must be used to specify the database and message file -since there is no home directory for the default settings for these options. -.TP -.B \-x -Reads an exclusion list from stdin (one address per line). -Mails coming from an address -in this exclusion list won't get a reply by -.BR vacation . -It is possible to exclude complete domains by specifying -``@domain'' -as element of the exclusion list. -This should only be used on the command line, not in your -.I .forward -file. -.TP -.B \-z -Set the sender of the vacation message to -``<>'' -instead of the user. -This probably violates the RFCs since vacation messages are -not required by a standards-track RFC to have a null reverse-path. -.PP -.B Vacation -reads the first line from the standard input for a -UNIX -``From'' -line to determine the sender. -Sendmail(8) -includes this -``From'' -line automatically. -.PP -No message will be sent unless -.I login -(or an -.I alias -supplied using the -.B \-a -option) is part of either the -``To:'' -or -``Cc:'' -headers of the mail. -No messages from -``???-REQUEST'', -``???-RELAY'', -``???-OWNER'', -``OWNER-???'', -``Postmaster'', -``UUCP'', -``MAILER'', -or -``MAILER-DAEMON'' -will be replied to (where these strings are -case insensitive) nor is a notification sent if a -``Precedence: bulk'' -or -``Precedence: junk'' -line is included in the mail headers. -The people who have sent you messages are maintained as a -db(3) -or -dbm(3) -database in the file -.I .vacation.db -or -.I .vacation.{dir,pag} -in your home directory. -.PP -.B Vacation -expects a file -.IR .vacation.msg , -in your home directory, containing a message to be sent back to each -sender.
