Title: enable disable vacation from console
Post by: larieu on July 27, 2009, 06:35:35 PM

I use one IMAP accounts for an group of users which direct the interface with customers (something like office@[fqdn])
and I want to use vacation to auto reply to customers starting every working day at 20 00 and cut off this at 7 am
I tried to found any comment about a script to solve this from console but I wasn't able to find any posts or anything in manuals
if I'll find one in console to put it in chrontab it's a joke

any hint is welcomed

db accounts show username

make a change with the panel

see what changes
then practice making the changes manually
eg
db accounts setprop username abc xyz

apply with
/etc/e-smith/events/actions/qmail-update-user

put it all in a script and call with cron

Moving this topic to the SME 7.x contribs forum, it is more appropriate there. Thanks!
