Depending on the MTA you are using there are ways of doing the forwarding, with exim you can add a line to the bottom of the exim.conf file that tells it where to redirect the mail to, its quite well documented in the exim info pages. With postfix you can use the transports file to redirect the mail. Not sure about other MTAs, hope that helps.
