Root email

How can I get access to root email via my mail client? How do I forward it to another address?

That's generally setup in /etc/aliases.

Look for a line that looks like:

[code:1]
root: USERNAME
[/code:1]

Who ever "USERNAME" is set to will receive emails addressed to root.

Just make sure to run "newaliases" after editing that file.
