Hi,
Just a thought, but do you really want mail for root to be handled directly?
You can alias it in /etc/aliases or similar like this;
root: bradleelan...@gmail.com
Then run the command "newaliases" to update alias table. I've not used
sendmail for years, but that's how I'd do it for postfix.
Regards,
Arne
