I assume you're using fastforward?

Read /var/qmail/doc/PIC.rem2local to see why. (In fact, read
/var/qmail/doc/PIC.* to see how qmail's mail-routing logic works.)

If you own the local user account "craig", then just call fastforward in
~craig/.qmail-default. Better yet, make it "&[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and
save the overhead of a program delivery for each message.
If someone else owns it, one of you has to give up control of
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
