that's not correct.

It is possible to store the old Subject with the "variables" extension  
and add it later to the auto-reply subject line.

-----snip-----

require ["variables", "vacation"] ;

# store old subject to variable "old_subject"
if header :matches "Subject" "*" {
         set "old_subject" ": ${1}";
}

vacation
    :days 7
    :subject "Out of office - ${old_subject}"
"I am out of  office until .........";

-----snip-----

This will create a subject for the auto-reply: "Out of office - I am  
the old subject"

see RFC5229 - http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5229
