I have root aliased to "webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxx" in /etc/aliases.  When I

But when I use "mail root", the mail goes to
"root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx".

Mail is handled by a SMARTHOST statement going out to a gmail mx server,
but the problem remains if I let it default to finding an MX on its own.

I'm baffled.
