There are two places where you can put your forwarding instructions: /a/mail/forward/$user or ~/.forward . The latter name is the standard location for a forwarding file, and it's supported at Nevis. The former location is preferred, however, since the file will remain available to the mail server if your home directory becomes unavailable; e.g., if your group's server goes down. |
