Hi Henrik, You evidently have postmaster aliased to root in /etc/mail/aliases (a common; nay default alias in sendmail), so sendmail will never try to deliver to postmaster, but only to root (as evidenced by the "(expanded from: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)" line). Either change the alias to send it to the correct user (don't forget to re-build the aliases database!), or delete it (ditto on the "don't forget") and let it go to the postmaster mailbox you have created.
