However postfix uses /etc/password to deliver email for root. Also for other users in that file, even when they do not have an entry in /etc/aliases.
Is this the case also for leap?
Yes. Mails are delivered locally to local users, and they are defined in /etc/passwd. (there are other ways, but this is the vanilla version).
Because in my system I have my users in etc/password that look alike the others. Could you, in the latter case post here a sample entry of etc password of a user that receives rootmail?
# grep root /etc/passwd root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
/etc/passwd says nothing about mail processing though.
If you want mail to root sent to another user, you amend /etc/aliases with e.g.:
root: per, \root
# grep per /etc/passwd per:x:1000:100:Per Jessen:/home/per:/bin/bash
I still do not have this fixed (although the patch I installed for filtering mail has stopped system crashes and 99% of filter issues, so I guess soon I can give feedback to my bug as solved..)
Is this still the issue of root not receiving mails sent to root? You said you went with my proposal #3 and re-enabled IPv6 - what happened after that? Were you or were you not able to send an email to root?
This is still the issue. I had a lot of crashes, so I fixed my kmail before
with the kde people (BTW, I think I will reccomand this patch for the "general
population" to be released, because it really changed my life (less sysload,
less temp, correct filtering and .... up to now no system crashes to black
screen any more). I am really delighted by the results.
So, I still do not have rootmail. I enabled ipv6 and now when I send mail I do
not have any feedback, so no error message. But the mail does not arrive in
the /var/mail/root folder. Also entropia does not receive. But...I found out
the third user receives and received also the error diagnostic code for
entropia:
