Re: [webmin-l] Usermin automatic reply not working

Ah thank you very much ! Will try it ASAP! 
Also when automatic reply is enabled, sending a new email won't work...
The new email is not distributed since .forward contains only the line:
|/usr/bin/procline

Is this normal (not sending email...) or do I need to modify something for postfix ?
