NetWare MHS 1.5 doesn't support this feature, although NetWare Global MHS
has a way to do this.  In MHS 1.5, you'd have to buy a third-party
application that will do either message forwarding or message 
redirection.  The _Messaging Solutions Guide_ lists a couple of products
that do this - you can get the guide from ftp.novell.com, directory
/pub/netwire/novlib/08, file sguide.exe.
