mail from root@localhost as send by fcron service not forwared to myuser@localhost

[Alain De Vos]

In /etc/aliases i have :

root:    x@localhost.

Yet mails from root don't arrive at x@localhost
[ Using opensmtpd,dovecot,sylpheed]

I edited /etc/mail/mailer.conf

sendmail    /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
mailq        /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
newaliases    /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
hoststat    /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail
purgestat    /usr/libexec/sendmail/sendmail

Now it works

What did not work was :

sendmail    /usr/libexec/dma

Or

sendmail        /usr/local/sbin/smtpctl

I wonder if:

root: x

would have worked with dma.
