Or use the .forward file.

[Sitting in the Lotus position, I write:] In your delivery file ".deliver",
either echo the address you want to receive the mail:

	echo "forwarding!address"

or pipe it to Smail if Deliver won't grok your address:

	cat $HEADER $BODY | smail address@forwarding.domain
	echo DROP
