As the other two replys noted is the best way to do this a forwarder on the
mail server.
sendmail based mailservers need the '.forward' file, qmail-based a dot-qmail
file ('.qmail-default' should be th eone needed). With Qmail it would
definitely be possible to forward AND store the incoming messages, with
sendmail it should but I don't know exactly how. The best would be to contact
the systemadministrator of the mailserver and ask him for a forward+store
solution for the holiday time. every other solution is a more or less good
'work around', but with a computer able to run TheBat! the whole day it should
also be possible to solve this.
