I can't seem to make it do what I want it to, which would be the exact
opposite of what you're doing. My problem was that
% /usr/lib/sendmail root << EOF
Subject: test
Test
EOF
Would result in a mail being sent to root@my.remote.host. What I wanted
was a locally delivered email (according to the /etc/aliases file).
After some research I added the following to my /etc/postfix/main.cf:
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost
That resulted in local delivery for mail sent to root@localhost and
root@my.local.host (and /etc/aliases is used for that :-).
