IF you're the sysadmin on your machine, put the alias in the /etc/aliases
file (or wherever you put your system aliases). If you're not the sysadmin
but he/she trusts you, have them specify an include file for the alias
that is editable by you...

You can also send mail to yourself and Bcc: to everyone else...
