One issue with changing postfix to share the same aliases file as

MUA's is that postfix disallows mail delivery to root by default.
You make it sound like this is a configuration problem. It is not. Since
postfix does not run suid root it is impossible for it to deliver mail
to the root account.
Because of this the root alias MUST be configured manually. Has a
solution to this been proposed?
I do not seen this as a problem. Root mail on a postfix system will goto
the postfix user unless you change the alias in /etc/postfix/aliases.
What kind of solution would you want for a non-problem?
