rkhunter

i have installed rkhunter on ubuntu 10.04 LTS

when i try to test rkhunter report it doesn't send email to my external root email recipient.

i can send email only editing /etc/default/rkhunter by replacing this row

REPORT_EMAIL="root"

with the desired recipient

REPORT_EMAIL="[email protected]"

These are my config file settings:

/root/.forward

[email protected]

and /etc/aliases

root: [email protected]

But it doesn't work with root recipient.

Any suggestion?
