	If the user is a fictitious user, you can simply put a .forward file in
their home directory (see smail(8), smail(5)).

	If the user has no home directory, you can place an entry in
/etc/aliases (see aliases(4)).

	Many years ago, after all else failed to curb an abusive user, the
rules in /etc/sendmail.cf (see smail(5)) were modified such that all his
transmissions were redirected to censors.  Shortly after that, his account
was revoked for other reasons.
