I doubt you can do it thru the GUI, but, if you are using sendmail you 
can use the pipe operator "|" to copy all mail being delivered to a 
mailbox to a file anywhere on the file system.

This is from memory, so double-check the syntax:

in aliases file (for a user named bob)

bob: bob, "|/home/bob/mail-archive.mbox"

I am not sure if you need to create a separate account such as bob2 to 
hold the email that the user will get, or not.
