I don't know about sendmail & auto replys, I use procmail for auto replys. You'll have to readup on procmail for the details, but basically you write a recipe to read the subject line: ------ :0 cfh * !^X-Loop: jbarrm@panix.com * ^Subject:.*retrieve dinner_menu | formail -r -A"X-Loop: jbarrm@panix.com" :0 A | (cat ; cat dinner_menu) | $SENDMAIL -oi -t ------- Its fairly easy to set up.
