I take that the above line is from your exim.conf? Are you absolutely wedded
to the idea of a .forward file? Procmail is a much more useful tool. Try
this:-
Shove this into a file called .procmailrc in your home directory
:0:
*
/home/user/mail
ERASE or otherwise remove the .forward file - if you have a .procmailrc you
don't need it.
Try again - it should work!
