Configure the other server to accept mail for example.com as well as
other.example.com. Then add the following into your
etc/courier/maildroprc:
`test -f to-other.txt`
if ($RETURNCODE==0)
{
to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
}
do a:
touch /path/to/users/home/to-other.txt
for each and every user who should have mail sent to the other server.
