Xmail AutoReply script for xmailserver/Linux This page is not complete yet, we're working on it,so please be patient
Autoreply is a simple script for xmailserver by Davide Libenzi .(thanks for this great server)
Autoreply works as far as i know only on Linux systems , but maybe other systems are also supported.
Autoreply works only on xmailserver .
Autoreply uses the sendmail program wich is also delivered with xmailserver , and should be available
in the .//bin directory (example /var/MailRoot/bin)
The working is very simple , when someone sends a message he gets an automatic answer back to his mailbox.
[What do you need]
XmailServer for Linux wich you can download here
You can download the Linux package (tar.gz) from
here (XmailAutoReply.tar.gz)
[Installing]
Copy the file named autoreply somewhere on your harddisk , for example /var/MailRoot/bin
(Be sure that Xmail has access to the specified directories)
Else 'chmod 755 path to autoreply-script'
For example: chmod 755 /var/MailRoot/bin/autoreply.
Modify the options in the file named autoreply (tmppath ,Xmailservers root dir etc)
Create a plain ascii textfile (Template) in the mail-directory (or somewhere else) of the user wich must
send an autoreply.
Edit/Create a files called mailproc.tab wich is located in the users mail-directory.(./MailRoot/domains//)
add the following line into this file:
"mailbox"
"external" "0" "0" "/var/MailRoot/bin/autoreply" "sampleuser@sample.com" "@@FROM" "Thanks for your feedback" "/var/MailRoot/domains/example.com/sample/smaple.txt" ["@@TMPFILE"]
(See also sample file)
The last parameter ["@@TMPFILE"](without []) is optional , if specified autoreply will add the orginal message to the
replyed message ,if you don't want this text added then remove this option.
This should work . if you have questions mail me .
[Known problems/Restrictions]
Do not use Autoreply on emailboxes wich are also used for ERRORACCOUNTS
Also donot use mailboxes wich receives mail from other (local) deamons .
If you do this Autoreply can bring Xmail into a endless loop .
(and you know Xmail is VERY fast)
