Hi all;

Iam using redhat 6.2.

How do I use .forward to scan thru my mail (with maybe grep) looking
for mail to a certain email address. The email address could be in the
to header or in the recieved header ...etc...

I then want each mail to then be forwarded or bounced to another user.

The senario is the user user1 uses fetchmail to download mail from
my@isp the mail can be for either my@isp or for mine@isp. I want email
for mine@isp to go to/bounce to user2.

I need something like 

grep "To: mine@"  mail user2
grep "for mine@" mail user2
grep "for <mine@" mail user2

Any help would be very welcomed...
