All mail forwarding on the CS system is handled by a central user account database; .forward files won't work. To get mail forwarded, you should visit our mail forwarding webpage and log in with your UTEID. Mail is never forwarded past the lifetime of an account; however, alumni can request a lifetime @alumni.cs.utexas.edu forwarding address. In case you want to learn more about how to use procmail on our systems, check out the FAQ on procmail.
