Hi. That sounds like a vacation response that should be handled by the email clients rather than the ebox interface.
Is that really desirable?
Wouldn't it be easier to include Horde-mail or SquirrelMail?, and let users set their vacation responses etc?
If I'm wrong and there's a good reason, let me know and I'll go away. :-)

Here is a scenario and how we fixed it.
A user has a blackberry device and wants to receive email sent to his ebox domain to the blackberry. We implemented this with forwarding.
Modify the following file: /usr/share/ebox/stubs/mail/main.cf.mas
From
virtual_alias_maps = ldap:valiases
to
virtual_alias_maps = ldap:valiases, hash:/etc/postfix/manual_forwards
Create the file: /etc/postfix/manual_forwards email@… email@…,anotheremail@…
postmap /etc/postfix/manual_forwards
The regenerate the config files (or just edit /etc/postfix/main.cf as above) and reload postfix
Obviously, it would be helpful to have this as an option in the gui.
This can be used for integration with blackberry devices, temporary diverts (a private email, a new email address) and many other useful things.
