Hello,

I set up router and transport for vacation message. Router seems to work 
OK, however I'm facing strange problem with transport. Exim user is 
"exim" and belongs to group "sysusers". Regular users are in a different 
group. I run exim as root user: exim -bd -d -v ---- debug mode

here is the transport - very standard....

vacation_reply:
 driver = autoreply
 file = $home/vacation.msg
 file_expand
 from = Autoreply System <$original_local_part@$original_domain>
 log = $home/vacation.log
  once = $home/vacation.db
  once_repeat = 7d
  subject = ${if def:h_Subject: {Re: 
${quote:${escape:${length_50:$h_Subject:}}} (autoreply)} {I am on 
vacation} }
  text = "\
  Dear $h_from\n\n\
  This is an automatic reply. Feel free to send additional\n\
  mail, as only this one notice will be generated once every 7 days.\n\
  The following is a prerecorded message, sent for 
$original_local_part@$original_domain:\n\
   ====================================================\n\n\
  "
  to = $sender_address

and I got something like this from stdout:

27285 no previous message sent to userx@domxxx.pl

why debugging problems when it's run as uid=0 (root)? or maybe it's 
not.... maybe it's run as user1?

I found out that when I add "user = exim" to transport and change 
/home/user directory provileges to 777 transport works great. But this 
is not a solution. I want to keep /home/userx directory provileges on 
700 level.

What I'm doing wrong? Could any please send me some hint what to change?

Best regards,
Marcin
