However....

I took me two weeks to figure out that the reason I wasn't getting those 
emails was because they were being sent to root and not forwarded.    
Thankfully I eventually membered the .forward file and set it up.

SUSE did this for me by default on install.  Fedora should too.  I'm 
sure I'm not the only one who was ignorant enough not to know (or 
remember) that I needed this extra step.
