Various routines send messages to root@<local domain> normally

Is there a central place where such can be redirected to an external mail address?
Yep, just edit /etc/aliases file, last line. Uncomment it, change the
*mark* value that is listed by default, to user(a)domain.com. 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.
