Well, I know that there's a little utility on entropy, the Miami Unix
Collective's interactive system, called vacation, that will respond to (I
think) all email with a message that you write.  I would guess there ought
to be something similar on MIAVX1, but I don't know.  Kent is on vacation
today, but hopefully he'll respond soon.  Hmmm...  Maybe I'll call John
Harlan.
