I've just tried that, but it lost a test email I sent mayself.

Permissions on ~/.forward are 100600, with me as the owner and group.

I had numerous difficulties with cpan and Net::FTP and also
Mail::SpamAssassin --  and when I did a manual make, I ended up with
several files in the wrong location.  (I fixed it by moving them to
somewhere in the @INC path, as I don't know enough about perl to know
where this @INC path is configured.)
