Forward a message to multiple user

There are many ways to do this in Mercury, and which one is best or easiest depends on what you are trying to achieve. If you want to forward incoming mail for a specific mailbox the easiest is probably to use the automatic mail forwarding feature (Configuration / Manage local users), which is available if "Allow file-based forwarding specification using FORWARD file" in Core configuration / Advanced is selected. You can add as many recipients as you like.

Filtering rules are much more powerful tools that allow you to control delivery of messages passing through Mercury in different ways, but they may require some basic understanding of programming logics to use. Brian's example of a global set of rules (each line is a separate rule!) was based on having a rule (in this case triggered by a specific sender) jump to a label to execute a number of rules, finally exiting rule processing. Check Mercury help or the PDF manual for more information about rules.

A third option would be to create aliases and link to general rulesets. If you have a lot of different forwarding cases based on recipient address this will be more manageable than creating very many global rules.

You can use global filtering by creating a rule that detects the message which then goes to a label within which you have multiple "Copy to another user" rules.  The logic looks like this:

If FROM abc@def.com GOTO Forward_ABC
.
.
.
Label Forward_ABC
Always Copy to another user
Always Copy to another user
Always Copy to another user
Always Exit


The Mercury manual contains valuable information about filtering and contains examples that may make more sense than my rudimentary logic description.
