@Ignas : Try with autoresponder in place of autorespond http://untroubled.org/qmail-autoresponder/

Hello,

This is a brilliant work! But just wanted to ask how to make autoresponder to respond in UTF-8 encoding? If I write a respond message in non english letters like ąčęėįšų - I get garbage when it autoresponds.

Do you know how to solve this?

If you want to manually set an autorespond message (instead of using qmailadmin) : http://www.pc-freak.net/blog/how-to-set-up-qmail-auto-reply-out-of-the-office-vacation-message-manually-using-qmail-message-processing-file/
