AutoReply for Messages fetched by POP3?

[TheInfinity]

Hello,

following problem. I have an Account set up with an autoreply and another (external) account which should be fetched regulary.

- If I send a mail to user@myzimbradomain autoreply works.
- If I send a mail to user@externaldomain while externaldomains accounts fetching is set up via webinterface it does not work.
- If I send a mail to user@externaldomain while externaldomains account is fetched by an additional fetchmail installation it does not work.

I watched zimbra.log - zimbra does not even try to send a mail.

... why?

Thank you for your help

Did you ever solve this? I am having same problem.

I also see this in the mailboxd.log:

2009-04-08 23:20:56,217 INFO [LmtpServer-270] [name=account@zimbraserver.com;mid=6;] mailbox - outofoffice not sent (not direct) mid=284 rcpt='account@zimbraserver.com' dest='address.of.sender.who.sent.to.pop@someserver .com'

I think this is causing the problem:

outofoffice not sent (not direct)

My external test account does not match the user@domain.com or any aliases for the account I am testing with. I think this may work with my real accounts that fetchmail picks up as they are addressed to a valid name that exists as an alias. Will have to just try and see.
