[root@test /etc]$ mail
No mail for root

I find it other email.

Please solve problem.

Hi,

Try running the following:

sendmail -bv root
grep root /etc/mail/aliases

Both should just tell you where root emails go, it should be defined in the alias file. If the outputs does not match it could be that the alias file is not updated, run:

newalias

Check for a .forward file in roots home directory.

Ian

I found email at /root/.forword and I change email in .forword file.
It doesn't send to new email. I use old email . It send.

I guess that Network not send to other email.

Do I guess true?
Please Answer me.

Hi,

The full command path is:

/usr/sbin/sendmail -bv root

is the other email address local on this machine?

Also check /var/log/syslog.

What exactly was/is the content of roots .forward file.

Ian

sendmail have not in path:/usr/sbin/.
I think that it have not this command.

/var/log/syslog have not content.
-rw-r--r-- 1 root 0 Jul 9 2000 syslog

file : /var/mail/root
