This vacation plugin requires ftp server running on the machine set in
plugins/vacation/config.php. You don't have ftp server running (netstat
-an | grep :21), firewall blocks connections to ftp server or ftp server
does not allows logins with username and password that are used when
connecting to squirrelmail and imap ('ftp localhost', enter user name and
password used when you log in sm).

If you don't allow email users to use terminal services (ssh,telnet) and
use some special shell set in /etc/passwd, put that shell in /etc/shells.
Ftp servers usually refuse logins of accounts that use shell not listed in
/etc/shells.
