Forwarding can only be accomplished by logging into the account and setting up the forwarding address in the mail settings. Then it takes the relay of a confirmation code through the receiving email which will need to be used to activate the forwarding.
Typically, its a best practice to keep work and personal email separate. If the "real" email addresses you are forwarding to are also work email addresses, you should seriously consider making the Google Apps account their "real" account. Otherwise the employee is going to be seriously missing out on a lot.
Migrate users with IMAP or POP and show them that mail is only one part of Google Apps.
Besides being able to use Chat, Calendar, Tasks, Phone Calls, Documents, Spreadsheets, Presentations, Forms, Drawings, File Storage, and Sites, there are 60+ services that they can access and use with their Google Apps account.
Is there a way to create new Google App users and setup their emails to forward to another email?
