I've coded an autoreply system base on django for our shared hosting infrastructure and since
Modoboa is much cooler and much more complet, I would like to add one feature to Modoboa
and then switch to it.

The feature would be to make it possible to specify a time window for autoreplies.

A use case could be: Sending an "away to lunch" message only during lunch time in the week.

It would requires to add python-dateutil as a dependency, updating the UI and migrating the database schema
and data.

If your agree, I will attach a patch to this ticket.

If you want to check to code that I'll be base on:

https://redmine.koumbit.net/projects/autorepalternc/repository

If you want more details on how I would do it just ask me.

I'm really interested by this feature. Adding a new dependency is not a problem, Python projects are built like that ;-)

If you experiment something, please do it using the mainline, not the last release. I've made huge changes for the next one (0.9) so don't waste your time with 0.8.8.

Just one question: would it be simpler to implement this feature using sieve rules ?
