I run the mail server for a non-profit organization with about 2,300
members. Since the mid-1990s (10 years before I was involved), the
organization has offered email forwarding to its members. Exactly 1,096
members currently have forwarding addresses set up. So somebody (probably
me) would have to set up 1,096 mailboxes, set up new ones and disable old
ones as members come and go, and worry about disk space, security, etc. And
the organization, already starved for resources, would have to pay for that
work.
