Hi!
I'm installing a mailserver on FedoraCore3 with
Cyrus+Postfix+amavis+clamav+web-cyradm. The installation configuration
worked finally, but I would like to receive emails in case of errors - e.g.
mails could not be delivered. Where exactly can I configure that?
aliases is already configured, that I receive all mails for root and
postmaster is redirected to root.

I receive mails from logwatch, which runs every day, but I would like to
receive mails in realtime if something goes wrong.

first I thought, I could configure that in /etc/syslog.conf but man-pages
say nothing about sending mails.
I hope somebody can help me.

Thanks in advance!

regards,
Mathias
