This is on the TODO list, but isn't universal so it can be a problem.
For example, in my vacation program it is -t instead of -r for this.
Some don't have it at all.  Some do it in different time units, etc.

Edit vacation/lib/Driver/*.php (probably forwards.php, maybe qmail.php)
and find the lines that read something like:

        if (!empty($alias) && ($alias != $my_email)) {
           $contents = "\\$my_email, \"|" . $conf['vacation']['path'] .
                       " -a $alias $my_email\"";
        } else {
           $contents = "\\$my_email, \"|" . $conf['vacation']['path'] .
                       " $my_email\"";
        }

and change it to something like:

        if (!empty($alias) && ($alias != $my_email)) {
           $contents = "\\$my_email, \"|" . $conf['vacation']['path'] .
                       " -r 2 -a $alias $my_email\"";
        } else {
           $contents = "\\$my_email, \"|" . $conf['vacation']['path'] .
                       " -r 2 $my_email\"";
        }

This would set it for "-r 2" what ever that means (2 days?).

It can be...  If you want to make the modification.
