2677.0. "Forwarding Subscriber Mail" by FLEX7::PATON_S (It's not easy having a good time!) Fri May 07 1993 13:34

    Is there an easy way of forwarding subscriber mail from one system to
    another?
    
    Perhaps the use of a special mail destination?
    
    Thanks

    Why would you want to do this? the whole point of SUBSCRIBERS: is to
    deliver mail to the local system.
    
    [SUBSCRIBERS: does not recognise any Mail Destinations other than
     ALL-IN-1 (as god intended)]
    
    If you really want to defeat this nifty piece of design then use the
    APR doc set and replace SUBSCRIBERS: with a system distribution list
    of the same them - mail will then be auto-forwarded (redirected)
    
    Or you could always log into the original system and do II ALL XF

2677.2There is a reason FLEX7::PATON_SIt's not easy having a good time!Tue May 11 1993 14:048
    The reason we want to do this is because a number of our users have
    moved to a separate node. They still want to receive subscriber mail
    which is sent to the main cluster.
    
    I guess that it sounds like a UDP may be the answer with somene logging
    in every few days. Unless someone has a better idea?

    I think a previous suggestion is better, of making up another, proper,
    System DL instead, which would have the other users, at their remote
    addresses, in it already.
    
    The "magic" SUBSCRIBERS: distribution list is intended for local
    announcements like shutdowns, maintenance etc.
