If this was working before, than you were not using Courier.

That's correct we were not running courier previously,

According to the above, you are running Postfix, not Courier.

I wasn't clear in the previous post, the envrionment runs postfix for SMTP and courier for IMAP whereas previously we were running sendmail and cyrus for the same purpose.

The best way to get help for your problem, is to be able to clearly explain what your problem is. Even after reading your message several times, it's still not clear whether you're running Courier, or Postfix, or whatever, and what exactly is not working. Without understanding what exactly your situation is, nobody will be able to offer much help to you.

It appears that I may be in the wrong forum for this specific problem. But I would appreciate if you guys could help guide me in the right direction. Given our setup (Courier for imap and Postfix for smtp), when new email comes in which application is responsible for parsing the .forward file and executing its insturctions?

It's your mail server, Postfix. An IMAP server provides access to messages in existing mailboxes, only. Nothing more. How messages are delivered to the mailboxes is something that the IMAP server does not concern itself with. Everything that's related to the actual mail delivery is handled by the mail server.
