Yep, just edit /etc/aliases file, last line.  Uncomment it, change the
*mark* value that is listed by default, to user@xxxxxxxxxxx  Restart
sendmail and should be all set.  Of course, that box will need to be
able to send emails out if not already configured to do so.

Just send root a test email to see what happens.
