Edit /etc/aliases and look near the very end of the file for the line
that's commented as "# Person who should get root's mail." Just
change marc to a local user. You could also change it to /dev/null if
you want to drop all root mail. I wouldn't advise you to do this, but
you could if you wanted.

It depends on what mail you ant to turn off. On a default install I
think logwatch is the main thing that generates mail to root. You
could uninstall that or disable the logwatch cronjob if you wanted to
stop this. Of course, I find the reports generally useful and short
enough not to be bothersome. :)
