Summary: Support forwarding only

Initial Comment:
Currently ISPMan/Postfix, when a user set's a
forwarding address, delivers both to the local mailbox
and the forwarded address.

For me this is bad.
I'd hate to see users that mail a user I host, but has
a forwarding address, to get bounces because the local
mailbox has it's quota in full use.

My sugestion is add an extra option, 'forwards only'.

With this setting, the message arriving for a user with
a forward address, would only be forwarded and not also
delivered localy.

How would one implement this in the user's ldap entry?
Well, if 'forwards only' is set, the user's
mailRoutingAddress would be equal to
mailForwardingAddress and the virtual_alias_maps ldap
lookup would only(and always) retrieve the
mailRoutingAddress.
If 'forwards only' is not set, mailRoutingAddress would
be mapped like it used to be, and the
mailForwardingAddress, well, would be the email forward
address, yet, one would only retrieve the
mailRoutingAddress for the virtual_alias_maps ldap lookup.
