Here are some of the relevant files: Have you inadvertently aliased the root user to another user? Or perhaps you deleted an alias and should be looking in the "root" mailbox? I have virtual mail setup on my systems and I lost periodic emails as well until I configured postfix correctly to consider my local machine's hostname as an acceptable recipient. I now alias root to the virtual user I want to receive these emails. Tom Veldhouse
