Hmm, why -d ${USER} if this is already known who I am from the
~/.forward file location?

Because as a sysadmin, then you can copy it to another user without
having to edit it each time.

Hmm, and why the sysadmin has to put in each copy the '-d ${USER}' when
he/she puts the copy in the ~/.forward file of the USER?

Because it's a per-user setting? I don't know for a fact, but that's how I'd do it: make the solution as general as possible.

Warren, you have not got my point: Why specfying '-d ${USER}' is required in a per user file in its HOME?
