I'm running Windows 98 SE and my email client is Microsoft Outlook. I'm using qmail in linux as the mail server here. I was wondering if there is a way, either on the client side (Outlook), or the server side (qmail), to set it to receive all emails, and forward them to another email address. I can't find a way to set it up in Outlook, and I don't know that it's possible. I'm almost 100% sure there is a way to do it in qmail, I just can't remember how to do it for the life of me. I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks in advance.

This can be done from Outlook. Just open the Rules Wizard (click "Organize" in toolbar, then Rules Wizard) and create a new rule that has the criteria you need.
Note that since you are doing this at the client level, this rule will only take effect when the message reaches Outlook, which means your PC needs to be on and running Outlook all the time for it to work. It would be more logical to run forwarding on your mail server. Unfortunately, I know nothing about Qmail, so I can't help you there. ;]

Good luck.
