Ah, OK - so you're actually using *sendmail*. it's been a few years, but as a
previous poster pointed out, you can force sendmail to honor the .forward
files, though clearly it's not happy about it.

FWIW, postfix still works fine with .forward files, it's a drop-in replacement
for sendmail, and it's also the default MTA in suse, so I'm curious how you
ended up with sendmail...
