By default, the redhat/postfix supplied /etc/postfix/aliases file aliases
the postmaster account to root. Until you get things working, simply set the
root account (at the bottom of the aliases file) to a valid e-mail address.
Note: Don't forget to rebuild your aliases database by issuing...

# cd /etc/postfix
# postalias aliases
