	This has already been asked/answered a few times this past week
or two.  On U*IX systems the .forward file is the method of choice.
Try "man forward" or "man sendmail" for more information.

	In some private email we had....you asked about forwarding from
a VAX.  The email I sent you bounced since your .forward file on the
above account must have been set incorrectly.  (I didn't save the error).
I don't speak VAX...but maybe others on the list do?

	Ed

To set up mail forwarding for a VAX/VMS system (so that arriving mail gets
redirected elsewhere)...

1.  Login to the VAX.
2.  Start MAIL.
3.  Give the mail program the command:
	SET FORWARD=xxxxx
    where xxxxx is the e-mail address you want mail redirecting to
4.  EXIT to get out of mail

Other useful mail commands:
	SHOW FORWARD
	SET NOFORWARD

(All this is actually descibed within VAX MAIL if you type "HELP"!)

Word of caution: VAX/VMS systems usually _don't_ use standard Internet
addresses for e-mail addresses.  I am presuming you know how to use such
addresses on your system.  If not you will need to ask advice locally, as
it depends what mail gateway software has been installed on the computer.

Cheers,

This isn't Pine's task. Use a pipe in your ~/.forward file (on Un*x) to
forward your mail. If you have different conditions for delivering mail
then use the procmail package and call procmail in your ~/.forward file.
Then your mail handling conditions can be written in descriptive form in
a file named ~/.procmailrc

Hope this helps.
