Trace does indeed only apply to the SMTP server, not the client, so I
can't tell you the actual code used, but mail certainly does come in and
then get resent when using 'alias'.  Using the "reject and send to
someone else" method would indeed save me time, but do all SMTP servers
accept that response and do the right thing?  I know they *should*, but
that's not my question...
