  A user here has his mail fowarded to two other accounts/people, done
quite nicely in his .forward file (the host machine is a MicroVax 3500
running Ultrix 3.1).  However, the those two other accounts also send him
mail (I'm nost sure why - I don't want to get involved).  Anyway, what
they would like is a if there is a way that any mail that comes from
those two accounts (the ones in the .forward file) don't get forwarded
back to the the accounts.  There isn't much documentation on it, so any
help would be appreciated.
  Please email back replies, as I don't always read this group.
