I have been wondering for some time how Debian identifies a mail address for the root user and indeed any local users.
I have recently cloned my server, changed hostname all correctly but any mail sent from root using mutt comes in as if from the previous server name and not the new one. I would like to know how to change this. I would also like to have local server "root" mail send to an external postmaster account and have never been able to do this either. I am using sendmail/spamassassin/mimedefang/clamav/lenny/squirrelmail/ courierimap my /etc/aliases file contains no mail addresses, just single word usernames. Can anyone tell me where these are held and how to have my root mail sent to an external postmaster mail address please?
