We just reloaded one of our 7.2 boxes with RedHat 8.0. On 7.2, I had a file /root/.forward with my external e-mail address in it. Whenever root received a message, it would forward it to my external address.
With this new 8.0 box, it doesn't do that. Actually, no local mail is being delivered either. If I remove the /root/.forward file, then send mail locally to root, it never gets there. Here is what my /etc/maillog looks like when I locally try to send a message to root: Feb 26 09:37:21 server3 sendmail[2867]: h1QHbL0F002867: from=root, size=36, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED] That's it. Nothing more. The message disappears into the void. Has anyone had a similar experience, or does anyone have any advice?
