See fastmail, or better yet, use a MTA alias.  Its really
designed to handle this problem.

Huh?  All of the Elm docs are distributed as part of the release.
They are in the doc directory.

If you are refering to the postscript pre-processed docs kept on
dsinc.dsi.com for ftp/uucp, those are the same docs as in the doc
directory, just run through di-troff and a di-troff to postscript
converter.  I did that so those without troff but with a postscript
compatible printer would have a way of printing the docs in the better
format than nroff.
