Yes, found that in the meantime ... anyway, still no success ...
according to the mail log, it's not being called, at least there are
still no messages from it ... I enabled the debugging_command, using
strace to get some infos on whether it is even trying to call sendmail
... from what I can tell, it doesn't even attempt to do anything ... is
the vacation line valid the way it is in the script?

Also, the logfile created by this line:

debug_command: /usr/bin/strace -tt -f -s256 -o /tmp/strace.cyrus.%s.%d
-p %2$d <&- 2>&1 &

doesn't show up right away either ...

Isn't there any way to make timsieved more verbose about what it's (not)
doing and why?
