Yep, #2 is very doable.  However, how you do it depends upon which mail 
system you're using, sendmail, postfix, etc.  I'm using postfix, and what 
I do is edit my /etc/postfix/aliases file and then run the newaliases 
command.  I think in sendmail you'd modify the /etc/aliases file and then 
run the newaliases command, but I'm not sure (I refuse to run sendmail for 
security reasons).

Good luck!
