sendmail question

[Robert Dege]

If all you want to do is forward email, you can do either of the
following:

1) use a procmail recipe to forward the mail (then you can log the
forwards)

2) add an entry in the /etc/aliases file & HUP sendmail.

I've always used the access database for more of an anti-spamming source,
then a mail forwarding source.  But I'm no sendmail guru either.
