Subject: Announcing qmail-autoresponder version 0.98

Version 0.98 of qmail-autoresponder is now available at:
	http://untroubled.org/qmail-autoresponder/
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
Changes in version 0.98

- Manually invoke qmail-inject and qmail-queue separately in order to
  fully control the envelope and capture the qmail PID.

- Added a "bcc" option to allow for copying autoresponses to an address
  other than the sender.

- Add an optional separator before the copied message.

- Add a newline after the response message and after the copied header,
  to make sure there is at least one blank line between them.

- The MySQL autoresponder now supports an optional table name prefix to
  better interoperate with other applications using the same database.

- Added support for a log file or table that is not pruned.

- Updated for bglibs v2.

Development of this version has been sponsored by FutureQuest, Inc.

qmail-autoresponder
Rate-limited autoresponder for qmail
Bruce Guenter <[email protected]>
Version 0.98
2015-02-05

This is a simple program to automatically respond to emails.

It is based on some ideas (but little or no code) from a similar
autoresponder by Eric Huss <[email protected]>, and ideas presented in
the qmail mailing list.

Features:
- Limits rate of automatic responses (defaults to a maximum of one
  message every hour).
- Will not respond to nearly every type of mailing list or bulk email.
- Will not respond to bounce messages or MAILER-DAEMON.
- Bounces looping messages.
- Can insert the original subject into the response.
- Can copy original message into response.
- Can use links in the rate-limiting data directory to limit inode usage
  to a single inode.

Development versions of qmail-autoresponder are available at:
	https://github.com/bruceg/qmail-autoresponder

Installation:

- Make sure the latest version of bglibs from
  http://untroubled.org/bglibs/ is compiled and installed.
- Build the sources by running "make".  To build the MySQL support, run
  "make mysql" as well.
- After the package has been compiled, run the following command as root:
	make install

Usage (file-based):

Put "|qmail-autoresponder DIRECTORY" into your ".qmail" file before other
delivery instructions.  DIRECTORY is the directory into which rate-limiting
information will be stored, and is expected to contain a "message.txt" file
containing a pre-formatted response (including headers).  Any instance of
"%S" in the message file will be replaced with the original subject.

Usage (MySQL):

Put "|qmail-autoresponder-mysql USERNAME DOMAIN" into your ".qmail" file
before other delivery instructions.  All data (including the message) will
be pulled from the MySQL table.  See schema.mysql for a table schema.  This
program reads MySQL options from the "qmail-autoresponder"
group.  If $MYSQL_USER, $MYSQL_HOST, $MYSQL_PASS, $MYSQL_DB, or $MYSQL_SOCK
are set in the .qmail file, they override the defaults in the MySQL
configuration file.  The parameters "USERNAME" and "DOMAIN"
are used as keys into the MySQL tables.  DOMAIN may be replaced with
"$HOST", and USERNAME may be replaced with "$EXT", "$DEFAULT" or "$USER"
depending on the installation (quoting is required).
