Guy, in your /etc/postfix/aliases file you want to set an alias for "root" users' mail to go to your username so you're able to get root's mail. -- daRcmaTTeR windows = "where do you want to go today" Mac = "go where you want, do what you want today" MDK-linux = " been there, done that, got the tee shirt, why do you ask?"
