How do you setup a vacation message in SquirrelMail, Horde, or OneCube? I am not seeing it in any of the screens including the Options screens. Thanks.

You don't do it in webmail. You need to setup an "autoresponder" on the email account itself (the webmail applications just show you the messages sitting on the mail server - they don't do any real processing themselves). Go to the Control Panel, then choose Autoresponders.

Thanks much. I was looking for a way for the users to set their own messages, but I appreciate your answering.

The only way I can think of for users to set their own messages would be for each of them to use an email client program like Outlook, set up an autoresponse there, and leave it running while they're away. Not very practical, I grant you, but I don't believe there's any other way to do it.
