You could try installing Procmail and put this in your .forward: | procmail Then, "touch ~/.procmailrc" and see if mail gets through normally. Then, try adding :0 /wherever/you/wanted/the/mail to .procmailrc and see if that works. Greg P.S. Your return address is set wrong--mail directly to you will get lost. ----------- "With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea." --RFC-1925
