  It might be due to too wide permissions at either his home directory,
  or at  .forward  file.

  It might also be that the routing processing loop breakup code I rewrote
  recently could help.

  A way to understand what happens in this case is the standard router
  processing analysis:
	$MAILBIN/router -i
	z# rtrace
	z# router  User.Name
	(lots of output)

  Remember to run it as root to gain full access to user files when needed.
