Any mail for mailer-daemon will go to postmaster.
Any mail for postmaster will go to root.
This is a fairly standard alias file. You can setup a user called xxyyzz
and have an email alias for him such as GeorgeCluney. So that anyone who
emails GeorgeCluney@.... will actaully go to xxyyzz@....
Lookup the use of addalias for more details.
