View Full Version : Root emails going to user nobody

Not sure what I've done, but for some reason all emails send to user root (like system messages), are going to user nobody.

The /etc/aliases looks like this:

# /etc/aliases
mailer-daemon: postmaster
postmaster: root
nobody: root
hostmaster: root
usenet: root
news: root
webmaster: root
www: root
ftp: root
abuse: root
noc: root
security: root
root: root


I've done a /etc/init.d/postfix restart

Still, same problem.. System emails messages to root are going to user nobody :/

Anyone here who might know what is going on here?

I guess root: root can not be done.
a root: web1_info is okay.... That is... If I do a /etc newaliases <<< I forgot to do this all the time when I tested all combinations :-/

All is working fine now.
