I don't know how many users you have, or if you're looking for more
elegant way to do it, but there's a Linux Gazette article for
setting up mail for a home network. In it the author shares one
email address between himself and his wife by filtering on the "Real
Name" of the recipient rather than the email address. This isn't
very secure, so if you have a bunch of users, then it may not be the
best method. Check out the article, it may give you some pointers.
The URL is:
http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue43/stumpel.html
and in case I messed that up, it's the July 1999 issue (#43)
