 Thanks to the many who answered my question about mail forwarding
 The almost unanimous consensus was cretaing a file  .forward
 with the foorwarding address in it. Despite the fact that no 
 man exists for it (an SGI running IRIX) it worked. I get the
 impression that this is pretty common knowledge. How the hell
 do you achieve this nirvana of "common knowledge" in UNIX!?
 I have RTFM'ed myself blind.
