Does 10.8 server have vacation messages

In 10.7 server, we had a great filter for vacation messages built into webmail.

Users could configure this quite easily.


I can't find either webmail or vacation messages in Mountain Lion Server 10.8.


Any solutions?


Cheers.

Mac OS X (10.7), 10.7 Server

Ok, I think my non functioning IMAP account is related to the fact I added it as the iCal email notification for testing. So it did not have anything to do with managesieve or roundcube.


Gerry if you are up for that challange please have a look over at: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4183859


Thanks again for all help, would have lost a lot of hair trying to get webmail and vacation note | rules | filters up and running without your notes on this. Very appreciated!

OK. I think I've got it. After messing around endlessly with sieve rules and attempting to use 3rd party vacation plugins (which I couldn't easily make work), the solution was easy.


When you create the rule, be sure to put your e-mail address in the following field:


Additional list of recipient e-mails (comma separated):


As soon as I did that, viola!

I have already tried that but I still don't get the mail. I do not see any evidence of it in the smtp logs, imap logs, syslog and sieve logs etc. the only thing I do see is that the hidden file in the users uuid folder called .dovecot.sieve.dupes, I think, does get created. This file is used to stop the mail being sent more than once every day for example.

Gary, start from scratch !


Create a new DNS entry - webmail2@yourdomain

Create a new website and download current roundcube and go from there.

It will not take as long as you think - create a new database as well. It can co-exist with your current webmail and will not cause any conflict for testing purposes.


If you're really bent on solving it - You'll need to get deep into the documentation on the various wiki's

Let us know how you go!
