With an alias your mail is forwarded to another user, so it's no surprise there is no mail in root's mailbox anymore. Perhaps you can be more verbose in your mail and quote the console session output of how you look for the mail folder and mail. That makes it easier for readers. -- Fedora release 9.90 (Rawhide) - Linux 2.6.26-0.17.rc3.fc10.i686 loadavg: 1.42 1.14 1.13 -- fedora-list mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
