====Only for SME9====
If you install [[:UserManager]] and delegate to users the 'uservacations', they can manage by default the vacation message of all users. However it is needed sometime to restrict a user to certain groups, or just one group.
* The user 'helene' will be able to manage only users belong to the group 'parents'
db accounts setprop helene delegatedVacations 'parents'
* The user 'helene' will be able to manage only users belong to the groups 'famille' and 'enfants'
db accounts setprop helene delegatedVacations 'enfants,famille'
* Remove all group based restriction
db accounts setprop helene delegatedVacations ''
or
db accounts delprop helene delegatedVacations

====Envelope sender not allowed when using remote SMTP====
It is possible to specify a custom sender domain in the "From:"-header of a user's vacation message. If this custom sender Domain is not registered as a valid primary or secondary domain in SME server-manager, chances are that remote SMTP servers will reject the vacation message (550 envelope sender not allowed).
Some remote SMTP servers will forward the vacation message nonetheless in that case, if an additional "Return-Path:"-header (using the same sender address) is set in the vacation message, eg. before the first blank line separating the body of the mail, one can write:
From: user@customdoma.in
Return-Path: user@customdoma.in
Subject: Away from my mail - $SUBJECT
====Disable cron status mail====
If you wish to disable the status mail from cron, follow the workaround given in http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7555#c26
This may be suppressed in a future release.
