    LISTSERV's Mail  Forwarding package (available  from LISTSERV@CERN
as  FORWARD  PACKAGE)  will  do user-requested  mail  forwarding.   It
implements a LISTSERV local command, /FORWARD, that lets users specify
the  target address  for their  mail.   Statistics are  kept, and  the
Postmaster can  issue a /FORWARD SUMMARY  to get them done  up pretty.
It works by  wrapping the mail up with Resent-  headers and sending it
to the MAILER, so it won't work for files, but it's a good start.  Our
users love it.
