    Vacation is an autoresponder; it will send a message only once
    and then make a record in its database file to not send again to
    the same address for some configurable amount of time.

    The database is initialized with "vacation -i". To examine the
    database, you may use

        postmap -s .vacation | less

    This will show the addresses and the (binary) time stamps. Once
    an address is in there Postfix won't autoreply to it for a while.
