Majority of the respondent answers have been classified into two namely:
a.) The use of symbolic links on the /usr/spool/mail pointing to the
desired new directory.
b.) The use of procmail -- for this has a feature wherein it can work
hand in hand with sendmail to send incoming mail wherever wished to
