Create an alias in the /etc/alias file for root that points to your user
account, for example:
root: tatia
Root mail will then be delivered to a suer account and you will not have
problems will attempting to read anything in /root. I wonder what the real
problem is ... I think it is because exim does not run as root so when it
looks for a .forward or filter file for the root user, it fails to gain
access to that directory.
