Yeah, I remember that bug. We fixed that about two months ago in BlueOnyx:

http://devel.blueonyx.it/trac/log/BlueOnyx/5106R/ui/base-
email.mod?action=stop_on_copy&mode=follow_copy&rev=199&stop_rev=10&limit=100

The problem is that vacation.pl uses the function I18nMail() to send emails. 

That function is built into Sausalito and has some issues here and there. It 
works fine most of the times, but it messes up email headers if there are 
sites with long domain names and such.

Our work around was to switch from I18nMail() to the Perl module MIME::Lite 
for sending emails. MIME::Lite produces emails that conform to MIME standards, 
which isn't always true for the old I18nMail().
