But it can be changed where?

What the admin web UI does (on the Qube mark 1) is add a line to the aliases
file to forward things to the vacation program.  If you have an existing 
forwarding setup (I.e. Jo User wants her mail to go to jo@xxxxxxxxxxxx as
well as juser) so that aliases contains
juser:  juser,jo@xxxxxxxxxxxx
then you may run into problems using the web interface.
This also applies if you once had a line like that and then commented it out
