If you're trying to forward joe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx to joe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
then add a line like this to /etc/aliases:

joe:		joe,joe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

If it says this:

joe:		joe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

then it gets forwarded to "otherdomain" without hanging around to 
be picked up locally - I guess this is what the web interface does.

BTW, Jason, it helps (in general) to say what machine you're using:
Qube1, Raq2, etc.
