1) As a user, you can add ~/.forward to read:
username@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, \username
The "\username" is so the user still spools mail here on the RAQ4.
2) As root, you can edit /etc/mail/aliases to read:
username: username@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Remember to rehash the aliases databases by running "newaliases"
after you've edited the file.
