/usr/share/sendmail-cf/README
In /etc/sendmail.cf, you should see something like
# Forward file search path
O ForwardPath=$z/.forward.$w:$z/.forward
where $z is the user's home dir, and $w the local hostname. .forward files
are owned by the resp. user.
If all looks ok, you need to check the mail logs carefully.
