I have it configured right now this way:
In canonical: root rootmachinename....
In /.forward: rootothermachine

An it works! Mail is forwarded to the root account in othermachine with
rootmachinename in the headers, what is what I wanted to discriminate
mail from roots of different machines.
I don't see it delivered to nobody.
Isn't this right?
