As a special-case, the forwarding address may be foo@master.debian.org,
in which case the message is relayed to that system for processing by the
-user's .forward or .procmailrc files. Forwarding to master.debian.org uses
+user's .forward or .procmailrc files. Forwarding to master.debian.org preserves
the extension part of the original address.

Some options available to you are:

<ul>
- <li><b>bATVToken</b> (to be enabled before 1/1/2010, with any luck) BATV
- private token for address rewriting. Useful in combatting bounce forgery, but
- requires configuration on your own mail relay(s).
<li><b>emailForward</b> Address to forward your mail to. Setting this and

<li><b>mailCallout</b> Whether or not to use Sender Address Verification.
