Or you can consider the follofing lines found in my
/etc/periodic.conf.local:
daily_output="root huff" # user or /file
daily_status_security_output="root huff" # user or /file
weekly_output="root huff" # user or /file
monthly_output="root huff" # user or /file
"Fixing" root in etc/mail/aliases may work for programs for
which this is not desirable.
