"via the web with kmail", as in access the internet for my email.

/etc/aliases contains ...

daemon: root
bin: root
sys: root
sync: root
games: root
man: root
lp: root
mail: root
news: root
uucp: root
proxy: root
postgres: root
www-data: root

So my root mail goes to root ? because of "mail:root" ?
