in your case, log in as root, then in the home directory for root (~root)
create a file called .forward (don't forget the '.' character.  Then vi this
file and add just the following entry:

bascule

mail by default will check local accounts first, kinda like dns lookups.  If
it can't resolve, then it forwards it on.

Cheers!

BTW: I think the info is in the mail man pages or maybe sendmail.
