My idea (untested, needs error checking): 
- create two standard templates: autoreply-fr, autoreply-en
- use a Custom action for the autoreply scrip with the following prepare code:



my $lang;

foreach my $header(qw(To Cc)) {
    last (if $lang );
    foreach my $recipient (Email::Address->parse($message->head->get( $header ) ) ) {
        if ( $recipient =~ /^support\@domain\.com$/ ) {
            $lang = 'en';
            last;
        } elsif ( $recipient =~ /^supporttechnique\@domain\.com$/ ) {
            $lang = 'fr';
            last;
        }
    }
}

# Default to english
$lang = 'en' unless ( $lang );

my $Template = RT::Template->new( $RT::SystemUser );
$Template->Load("autoreply-".$lang);

require RT::Action::Autoreply;
bless($self, 'RT::Action::Autoreply');
$self->{Argument} = 'Requestor';
$self->{TemplateObj} = $Template;
$self->Prepare;
return 1;





You can of course also use the header parsing code directly in the template, but I like the idea to have template per language.
