How do I automatically forward all mail to a remote email address somewhere?
Note to users of older Citadel systems: you might recall that this used to involve a different procedure. Beginning with 7.00 it is now delightfully easy. You can set up automatic forwarding of all email to an external mail account anywhere on the Internet (or elsewhere on a Citadel network, if you so desire). This is sometimes known in Unix parlance as a .forward – file. It is configured using the mail sorting/filtering system which first appeared in version 7.00 of the Citadel system. The easiest way to configure it is to use WebCit. Log on to WebCit and select Advanced – View/edit server side mail filters – and if you haven’t configured any rules yet, switch the “When new mail arrives…” drop-down box from “Leave it in my mailbox without filtering” to “Filter it according to the rules selected below.” Then click “Add rule.” Create a new rule which reads something like this: “If (All), forward to: (enter the forwarding address here), and then Stop.
