Dear Philip,

We did not change anything else in sendmail.cf; the strange thing is
that it still works on another machine (IBM sendmail), while with
Berkeley sendmail it does not work anymore.

-Herman-
We replaced in sendmail.cf the local mailer by procmail.
As a result the .forward file of users do not seem to work anymore
to forward mail to another machine.

Can it be made so that the .forward file still works ?

Or do we have to write a script to change all .forward files
to .procmailrc files ?

Changing the local mailer should have no effect on .forward files.
Are you sure you didn't change something else in the sendmail.cf at
the same time?
