What exactly happens when you do (say) a Mail -v to someone who has their mailbox forwarded? -- Alfalfa Software, Inc. | Poste: The EMail for Unix nazgul@alfalfa.com | Send Anything...

The usual cause of the .forward file failing on our SR10.2 system is either the file protections *or* the Unix file ownership. -- David Krowitz krowitz@richter.mit.edu (18.83.0.109) krowitz%richter.mit.edu@eddie.mit.edu krowitz%richter.mit.edu@mitvma.bitnet (in order of decreasing preference)
