So, you have asked qmail to deliver mail for root@ to the instructions in the file
~alias/.qmail-root
Since they are empty it uses the instructions supplied as part of the start up,
which in your case appear to be to deliver into the Maildir directory called
~alias/Maildir
Therefore your log message is saying that ~alias/Maildir does not exist.
So my guess is still that you should create a Maildir in ~alias (preferably
using maildirmake).
Regards.
