The vacation responder keeps users from being bumped from mailing lists
and other email subscription services that don't react well to
auto-response messages.  A "REAL" autoresponder (every message is
responded to, like support@xxxxxxxxxx) can be configured by each user
using procmail, http://www.ii.com/internet/robots/procmail/, among many
other solutions.  

Dom Latter found where to change the resend tolerance for the vacation
responder.
