If you are running the stock sysV mailer you need to replace your mailbox
(/usr/mail/userid) with a file that says:
Forward to new!address
Some versions allow you to use "mail -F new!address" to create this
entry.  Otherwise, send yourself a dummy message to create the mailbox
file so you can edit it without special permissions.
