From the above migration FAQ:

{ { {
Q: Will I be able to use a .forward file?

A: No. Because .forward is specific to sendmail, and Verio's 
New Web Hosting Solution uses qmail to receive email,
the use of .forward files cannot be supported.
} } }

Does this mean that .qmail files (in my home directory?) will work?  The
application I want to use has a man page that assumes qmail, so once I
know about any system-specific things to watch out for I'm probably OK.
