Just redirect the mail to an administrative user on the system using the
same /etc/aliases file.
Here is an example from one of our mail servers:
# Mail manager aliases
mailer-daemon: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
postmaster: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
# Other miscellaneous system aliases
sysop: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ftp: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
news: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
info: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
hostmaster: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
On Debian you can use /etc/email-addresses to rewrite the From-adresses
to valid ones.
