How do I setup an automated message on my linux mail server? If an e-mail comes in for a user to have the server send an auto reply to the sender with a custom message instead of doing this on Outlook?
 
Had a look, different distro, hope the the concept is almost the same, just had a quick scan through it, will go through it thoroughly in a moment and see if I can use anything valuable in there...

One other thing is, I'm using sendmail and not procmail... Wonder if I can run the two simultaneously? :confused:

Thanks for the help Nod!

Found a few things when googling for "sendmail procmail".
Have a look at this one: http://www.softpanorama.org/Mail/procmail.shtml
It describes how to forward your mail from sendmail to procmail.
Or this one: http://www.perlcode.org/tutorials/procmail/filtering.html
Describes how to use procmail as sendmail LDA (local delivery agent).
