What you can do is go into your postfix setup and alias root to where you want roots mail to go. This way any mail that would go to the user root would be sent to the aliases email address.
root -> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I do not use postfix, so I am not able to tell you how to do it. Under sendmail you would either add or modify the the root line to look like this: root: [EMAIL PROTECTED], then you would run the command newaliases. What this does is tell sendmail that any mail for root is to be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I am sure there is something very similar in postfix.
This way you do not have to modify anything other than the aliases file.
