The following article from the SCO Information Tools database should help 
with your problem.   I'm posting because I think this may be of general

How to set up mail forwarding in MMDF.

KEYWORDS:  .maildelivery mmdf unix resend forwarding

RELEASE:   SCO UNIX System V/386 Operating System Generic 

PROBLEM:   How do you set up MMDF to forward mail delivered to
	   one account to be sent to another account?
	   
SOLUTION:  Suppose we have two user accounts, `pebbles' and
	   `bambam'.  Further suppose we want mail that is sent
	   to `pebbles' to be forwarded to `bambam'.  To implement
	   this, create a file in `pebbles' home directory called
	   `.maildelivery' containing the following line:

	   To	pebbles	|	A	/usr/bin/resend	bambam

	   Mail sent to pebbles will now be forwarded to bambam.
