[vps-mail] allowing automatic email from server



Now that I have a VPS2 and can give out shell to people, I've noticed that with my sendmail configuration, the automatic emails that are sent to users (crontab, abnormally terminated vi sessions, etc) bounce. This is entirely my fault since I added the following to /etc/mail/virtusertable:

root@xxxxxxxxxxxxx   me
@server.domain         nobody

For all other users, I have associated them with the other domains I control and mail flows normally.

The question:

How do I allow mail to the server's domain to go through to system users only when it is generated on the server?

Possible methods I have thought of (but don't know how to implement at the moment) are:

1. Modify the system to use different sendmail options when generating email 2. Modify the system use different domains than the server's for different users
 3. Modify the sendmail configuration to do what I want

Any help would be appreciated
