postfix not sending for root


First of all, this was working. Not sure what changed. I can send mail from my RHEL 6 server to outside mail, ie. yahoo.com, and also inside to our internal mail server. But, root cannot do this. Root simply does not send mail internal or out. Here is what is in the maillog:

Aug 17 08:30:53 my_server postfix/pickup[15551]: F18C120373: uid=0 from=<root>
Aug 17 08:30:53 my_server postfix/cleanup[27453]: F18C120373: message-id=<20120817143053.F18C120373@my_server.my_domain.com>
Aug 17 08:30:54 my_server postfix/qmgr[15552]: F18C120373: from=<root@my_domain.com>, size=436, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
Aug 17 08:30:54 my_server postfix/smtp[27455]: F18C120373: to=<me@my_domain.com>, relay=outlook.my_domain.com[10.0.0.2]:25, delay=0.24, delays=0.02/0.01/0/0.21, dsn=2.6.0, status=sent (250 2.6.0 <20120817143053.F18C120373@my_server.questar.com> [InternalId=6199605] Queued mail for delivery)
Aug 17 08:30:54 my_server postfix/qmgr[15552]: F18C120373: removed


It appears to send the mail, but nothing appears in my in-box. If I su to any other user, then this will work. It's just root that is having the problem. Any ideas?
