- I maintain shell accounts on several of my net-neighbor sites but only want
- to read mail on my own system (since it is much easier to logon from the
- local console). I put a .forward file in my directory on the neighboring
- system that has a one line mail address for my home system. Since they're
- all one jump away my file only contains xcluud!paul but I imagine you could
- use name@site addressing as well.

- I hope this helps.
