# /etc/aliases
mailer-daemon: postmaster
postmaster: root
nobody: root
hostmaster: root
usenet: root
news: root
webmaster: root
www: root
ftp: root
abuse: root
noc: root
security: root
root: administrator

But I'm using fetchmail actually:

#/etc/fetchmailrc
poll mail.domain.tld proto imap auth password
user helpdesk at domain.tld pass password mda "rt-mailgate --url 
http://hostname/rt --queue General --action correspond"

Thanks,
