How about the news software newsgroups?  Specifically, I expect you'll
be looking for news.software.nntp.  Before that though, reading the
documentation for whatever news server you're using would be smart.

That depends on what mail transport you're using, which you didn't say.
Presumably it's sendmail on a sun, in which case you're looking for the
group comp.mail.sendmail.  Reading the docs first would be a good idea,
as you'll probably end up choosing between an alias, or a .forward file.
