another address by using the % set-forward command but can't seem to figure out
how to do it. can anyone help me on this?

Is set-forward a c-shell thing? I've never heard of it.

.forward is an alias file in your home directory that directs sendmail to
redirect your incoming mail elsewhere. It's nothing to do with pine.

If sendmail is your system's Mail Transport Agent, then "man aliases" for a
description of the file format and everything you need to know about aliasing.
