Soon I'll be going on vacation, and one important class of
mail should be seen by one of my colleagues immediately.  I've
tested a simple forwarding rule for filter and it works just
fine.  My problem is that I want *two* actions for such
messages: the forward *and* saving in a certain folder.  It
doesn't look like filter knows how to do that.  Or is it just
that *I* don't know how?  The only thing I can think of is
saving to the folder, then (using cron) sending the batch (if
any) to my colleague periodically.  Seems pretty cumbersome.
