This is an OpenPGP/MIME signed message (RFC 2440 and 3156) --------------enigFE0D8B3B204062AA3809169E Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sandy Keathley wrote: > I need to accept an email to a specific address, then forward it to > several several external addresses. virtusertable will do that for a > single recipient.

(goes in the home dir of the user) The .forward file is usually one line long and contains nothing but the address to forward to. Multiple addresses are separated by commas. Example 1: Forward my mail to myaddress@somewhere.else.edu: myaddress@somewhere.else.edu Example 2: Same, and also keep a copy here in my own account xyz999: \xyz999, myaddress@somewhere.else.edu In both examples, the file is one line long ending with a RETURN. In the second example, the backslash \ tells the mail system not read the .forward again. -- Jonathan T.
