If you ask me - a better solution would be to do away with forwarding
completely and incorporate POP checks, like Gmail does. This alleviates
all of the issues with forwarding mail in relation to SPF and DKIM.
What happens when I send a letter to you at your previous employers
address ?
Do they write your new employer's address on the envelope and put it
in the outgoing mail ?
Or do they give you a key so that you can check your pigeon-hole out of
hours (since you cannot go in in working hours) ?
If you are a university researcher, your published papers probably show
your institutional email address, so there is likely to be mail you
want as well as all the spam, and young researchers do move around to gain
experience.
Sadly the current solution appears to be to use your gmail address,
which is OK unless someone does to Google what Musk did to Twitter ...
