Cool. Procmail is now installed, but the procmail.rc file, should that be
placed under root's home folder ie /root/procmail.rc or another user? I
assume root since Daniel's command doesn't specify any users?

That would mean I'm logged in as root, run the command, formail sends all
mails to procmail which sees the alias in procmail rc and sends the mails
out? Correct?

--As for the rest, it is mine.

Well, it doesn't have to be root, just $home/.procmailrc of some user that can read /var/mail/root...

Otherwise, correct.
