                             Mail Forwarding

If you wish, you can have your electronic mail automatically forwarded from
FreePort to another address.  The mail will not appear in your FreePort
mailbox; rather, it will be sent on automatically as soon as the FreePort
mail delivery system gets it.  This can be used if you like to read all
your mail together, and need to consolidate it from a number of sources
(FreePort, an account on a different machine, etc.).

                     Specifying A Forwarding Address

You can specify a forwarding address by choosing the menu item that says
``Have your mail forwarded'' in the Post Office, then picking ``Have your
mail forwarded'' in the next menu that appears.  You will be prompted for a
mail address to use, and, if the one you provide has no (obvious) errors,
it will be saved as your permanent forwarding address.  This is better than
the U.S.  Postal Service: as soon as you specify that your mail should be
forwarded, it will.  Your mail will continue to be forwarded automatically
until you say otherwise.

If you have your mail forwarded, but then decide for some reason that you
would like your mail to be delivered to your FreePort mailbox, just enter
your own username when you are prompted for a forwarding address.  The
program will perform the necessary magic to disable forwarding.

Note that you may not have mail delivered directly to files or programs.

                         Checking Mail Forwarding

If you would like to check where your mail is going, pick the item that
reads ``Where is your mail going now?''.  This will show you the current
forwarding address.  An address of the form

|"/usr/local/bin/m2mbox /u/1/cpr/mbox"

is OK (if a little obscure); it means that your mail is being delivered
to your FreePort mailbox as usual.
