Shalom,

ll /var/mail/root

Is it there, does it have bytes?

vi /etc/aliases

See if root mail is being redirected to a REAL user.

can you please send us

tail -40 /var/log/maillog

output?

[Jeroen Peereboom]

Use mail on that system to send a message to root. Tell us what you see, and show us some of the files we asked for.
