I'm using Ingo with the procmail filter.  When vacation mode is used, the
.vacation file that is used to keep track of who e-mailed is stored in
$MAILDIR (configured in .procmailrc) because procmail does a chdir to this
directory during startup.  I consider this is a "bug" since IMP then
displays the .vacation file in the folder list.  To get around this, I
would like to see an optional variable that could be set in the INGO config
that could be used to redirect the .vacation file  to a different
directory.  If the variable is set, rather than seeing:

 FILEDATE=`test -f '.vacation.USER at cse.yorku.ca' && ls -lcn
--time-style=+%s '.vacation.USER at cse.yorku.ca' | awk '{ print $6 + (604800)
}'`

... you would see something like:

FILEDATE=`test -f '$TMPFILES/.vacation.USER at cse.yorku.ca' && ls -lcn
--time-style=+%s '$TMPFILES/.vacation.USER at cse.yorku.ca' | awk '{ print $6
+ (604800) }'`
