redirect mail from ommaint script

[mrirh]

Hello,

I want to redirect mail from ommaint to a user other than root, however I cannot find where to update the MAIL_REPORTS variable. I see it in the script although I don't where to add an e-mail address.

Thank you,

James

There is a string like this:

MAIL_REPORTS="root"

close to the top. Just replace root with your email address. Or a a second like:

MAIL_REPORTS="youremail@yourdomain.com"

However, if you're the admin of the box in question then what you probably want to do is alias root to yourself in /etc/aliases rather than tweak it in ommaint. That way you'll get other system generated messages too.
