I'm not sure how the vacation functionality is implemented; but if it
goes through your normal MTA instead of attempting a direct SMTP connection;
then you should be able to have your MTA rewrite the From address on the
way out.  This is fairly trivial with exim; I'm not sure how hard it would
be with other MTAs.
