How to set up GroupWise forwarding
----------------------------------

One of the problems with Groupwise is that forwarding is broken:
if set up the "normal" way, mail appears to have come _from your
groupwise account_ and not from the original sender. In particular
if you just hit "Reply", your reply will go to your GW account
(and be forwarded back to you!). Here is a trick which we set up
on our mail server to make this behave better.

[note: the trick will not work if you try to forward directly to
some other mailbox, such as gmail; it only works with math.niu.edu
addresses]

In your browser go to webmail.niu.edu and log in with your Novell
username and password.

Suppose your Math address is hyeon@math.niu.edu

Click Options (Settings?), and the Rules tab.

Create a new "rule" of type "forward", name it "fwd", and
tell it to forward to

  hyeon%gw@math.niu.edu

(the %gw piece is important, type it exactly as above). Save
it. You will get a warning that it applies to all mail - that's
OK, click save again.

Then to delete forwarded mail from the GW mailbox, create a new
rule of type "delete", call it "zap" so it's alphabetically after
the first one (I'm not sure that matters, but just in case...)
and save it. Again you'll get a warning about no criteria being
defined, which is OK. If you want to keep copies of messages in
the Groupwise mailbox, don't create the "zap" rule, but then you
will have to check Groupwise from time to time and delete some  
email there, or else you will exceed their quota after a while.  

Test it by sending something from here to your GW address. Note
that this only works for messages under 10 MB in size (but nobody
should be sending email that large...)
