OK, forget about this line of reasoning - I realized
afterwards that it would probably be better handled in
the ".forward" file itself, so I changed the way the
Horde "Vacation" (Sork) module invokes "vacation" (ergo
what gets put into the ".forward" file) so that now
the ".forward" is created as

# cat /home/earle/.forward
\earle, "|/opt/courier/bin/reformail -f1 | /usr/ucb/vacation earle"

which I thought for sure would work - feed it to "reformail",
use "-f1" to add the "From " line that "vacation" wants -
no worries, right?

Well, I'm no longer getting a bounce from "vacation" (but
the mail is being "deferred":

Aug 2 14:15:47 workcourier courierlocal: [ID 702911 mail.info] \
id=00026F06.42EFE283.000065E5,from=<Greg@Earle.NAM E>,
addr=<earle@workcourier.my.do.main>,status: deferred

The good news is that the message(s) *are* getting delivered
when Courier does its next "flush" (so at least the "\earle"
part of the ".forward" seems to still work); the bad news is
that I am not seeing any returned "vacation" message from the
pipeline.

Is this the right approach to solving this problem (with
"vacation" needing a "From " line), in the ".forward" file
itself? I think it is, but I can't seem to find out why
the "vacation" pipeline isn't being invoked (I tried
trussing "couriertcpd", but that only got as far as "submit"
being run and exiting with a status of "1", for reasons
unknown).
