Showing help on 'mail-forwarding'

There are 3 personal properties that you can use to customize how your mail is composed and forwarded

.mail_forward
/help/ -- list of objects that will receive any mail that gets sent to you.
Objects on this list should either be players or descendants of
$mail_recipient.
If this list is nonempty, you will not receive any mail yourself unless
you are on it. E.g., if Rog is #4292 and ur-Rog is #6349

#6349.mail_forward={} -- usual case; ur-Rog gets his own mail.
#6349.mail_forward={#4292} -- Rog gets ur-Rog's mail instead.
#6349.mail_forward={#6349,#4292} -- ur-Rog gets mail and Rog gets a copy.
#6349.mail_forward={#-1} -- ur-Rog's mail disappears without a trace.

.mail_notify
/help/ -- list of objects to be notified whenever mail is sent to you.
This list may include anything that has a :notify_mail() verb.
Notification will take place regardless of whether or how your mail
is forwarded.

Thus, in the previous example

#4292.mail_notify={#6349} --- means that ur-Rog will be told
whenever Rog is sent new mail.

.mail_options
/help/ -- this controls lots of miscellaneous things. Use the @mail-option command
to view and set these options (see "help @mail-option")

See "help mail-resolve" for more detail on how mail forwarding and mail notification work. See `help MR-subscribing' for information on how to change .mail_forward and .mail_notify on $mail_recipient children, where they are !c properties.
