Take a look at the "ImportEchomail" stanza in mutil. You should find what you
need there with the "forward" option.

Why would you be getting netmails TO TickFix on your Mystic system? If
Synchronet is doing any kind of automated netmailing, it should be FROM
TickFix. The only thing I can think of is that someone used to using Synchronet
is sending incorrect netmails to your system?

Regards,
Nick
