Ok here goes:
These people have setup a kind of mailing list. When you send mail to an
email id, that mail has got to land in every ones mailbox. Now all the
mail ids to be a part of the mailing list are bunched up and put into
the .forward of that 1 email id.
For eg. user id is and in ~allusers/.forward all
mail ids which are supposed to get mail for that list are mentioned. so
when u send mail to , the mail is sent to every 1 in
the .forward. Now this list is > 6500 users. This used to work in
sendmail, will postfix accept such a setup ?
