I do it by adding a line like this to the bottom of /etc/mail/aliases

fred:<tab>fred, bert

<tab> means "press the tab key" and fred and bert are both users on the
server.

It works with external email addresses as well:

fred:<tab>fred, fred@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, bert

After editing /etc/mail/aliases type "newaliases" at the prompt to make
changes take effect.
