REMEMBER if you use this (or similar packages) ensure they are configured 
SO that your vacation package doesn't reply to a LISTSERV group...

otherwise the LISTSERVE gets swamped with the messag ethat you've gone on 
holiday... which you reply to the LISTSERV which sends it back, etc. etc...

Getting all the other uses of the LISTSERVE REALLY ANGRY!!

Why not .forward to a unix box running vacation...

OR better still .forward to your e-mail address on CompuServe (or 
similar) then you can read you e-mail from a large number of countires in 
the world....
