This is a problem with the configuration of the MTA. What is the MTA?
Sendmail? postfix? exim? qmail? smail? How is it currently
configured?

GUIs suck. There are lots of ways (at least with the MTAs I know
anything about) to have one user's mail go to several addresses.
BTW, the "GUIs suck" comment isn't universal. It's great to have X
with 5 terms, gvim, xmms, and some system load applets all on my
screen at once. Where GUIs fall short is when it comes to configuring
complex (and flexible) software. The GUI is never as flexible as the
software itself is ... (for decent software, unless the gui is just
gvim; if there's an exception to this I haven't seen it yet).

Yes, use $EDITOR to configure the MTA :-). If you want help with
exim, check out the docs on my web site or join the exim-users list.
