First thing I would do is check the permissions of the .forward file. It has to be VERY specific. I wish I remembered what it was..

If anyone can give me information or even point me to a sendmail list or resource I would appreciate it. I am writing a PERL script that takes incoming mail, parses the contents, and then uses them to update a status page. I thought the sendmail part would be as simple as adding a "|/path/to/script.pl" to the aliases file. Unfortunately, I do not even have read access to the aliases file on my webhost's computer. I called them and they told me I could accomplish the same thing with a .forward file, but that they could not tell me how. So I tried making a .forward file in my home directory with the line I would have put in an aliases file. But this didn't work. Does anyone have any ideas, or resources on this?
