are they all in /home/ ?
grep \/home\/ /etc/passwd | cut -d: -f1 | while read i; do

.forward isn't really the way to do this. you either use
/etc/aliases.db with a file as destination, the file containing one
address per line, or you get a mailing list? even installing your own
mailinlist manager isn't hard - i'd suggest mailman...
