I seem to remember reading about an undocumented feature of VMS MAIL
that allowed you to set a forwarding address as usual, but that would
also allow a copy of the incoming mail msg to be left in the original
mailbox AS WELL AS one being sent to the forwarding address.

If anyone can help be here I would greatly appreciate it.

On a similiar subject... Does anyone know how to get a mail account to
forward an incoming msg to a LIST of usernames?

                     are like a snappy introduction
                           to a tedious book.
