Domain setting for mail root

Hello,

I have many scripts (watchdogs, ...) that send mails to root.
Just root, not root@localhost.

I have added the localhost domain in james config, but still, it doesn't
seem to handle those emails.

As some of those scripts aren't mine, is there some way to configure
james to have those emails delivered locally ?

Thanks,

Sylvain.

A local-part without a domain should be mapped to localhost internally.  For
root mail, I use:

         <!-- pickup local mail for root -->
         <mailet match="RecipientIsRegex=root@localhost.*" class="Forward" >
            <forwardto> ... </forwardto>
         </mailet>

in my configuration.
