NAME
     ReplyDaemon  --  send receipt-reply messages depending on folder

TEMPLATE
     Name,Password,Server/K,UseReplyAccount/S,UseFolderAsReplyName/S

FUNCTION
     ReplyDaemon checks for new messages within some given folders
     and sends receipt-reply messages to the sender of these
     messages. The checked messages will be marked as unread,
     archived and postponed, thus both avoiding re-processing and
     expiring.

     This is quite usefull for maintaining e.g. a bugs database where
     the reporters should be given a receipt. You may use a tool like
     Reciever2Folder to sort your messages into folders first and
     then run ReplyDaemon to send the receipt-replies.

     The folders to be checked have to be listed in a config
     variable. Also subject and body text for the message to be send
     can be defined per folder via config vars.

     The receipt-reply may either be send from the users account or a
     special ReplyDaemon account. The later is for avoiding garbage
     messages in the user's mail folders.

     The Reply-Name put in the send message may get three values:
     - the folder name (if option UseFolderAsReplyName is set)
     - a reply name specified by a config var (see below)
     - not set, thus later replies will get to either the user or the
       ReplyDaemon, depenting on the option UsereplyAccount
