What happens? Removing the forwardfile director should stop it looking
for forward files!

userforward:
driver = forwardfile
file = ${home}/.forward
no_verify
check_ancestor
That will just check for the existence of the file without trying to
stat the home directory first. Or possibly you want to use
userforward:
driver = forwardfile
require_files = ${home}
file = .forward
no_verify
check_ancestor
which checks that a home directory exists as a pre-requisite to running
the director.
