By default mail should be only forwarded and not stored in mailbox. You can check it in .qmail file. For example:

# cat ./qmail/mailnames/plesk10.domain.com/mail1/.qmail
| true
| /usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir

deliverquota indicate that mail will be stored in mailbox. For forwarding you will see something like &<mailname>@<domain> without deliverquota.

You should add address for forwarding and disable "Mailbox" checkbox for email in Control Panel. In that case forwarding will be enabled without storing email in mailbox.

For example:

Usual mailbox:

# cat ./qmail/mailnames/plesk10.domain.com/mail1/.qmail
| true
| /usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir

Mailbox with forwarding:

# cat ./qmail/mailnames/plesk10.domain.com/mail1/.qmail
| true
| /usr/bin/deliverquota ./Maildir
&test@test.com

Mailbox with forwarding and disabled "Mailbox" checkbox:

# cat ./qmail/mailnames/plesk10.domain.com/mail1/.qmail
| true
&test@test.com
