Well, I do redirect mail to admin accounts. However, I use
SuSE 11 as a base system. And there it is a default to also
deliver root mail to the root account, default aliases looks like this:

 root:	tobi, \root

I was not aware, that root should not be allowed to recieve mail
at all and by removing the '\root' from /etc/aliases, deliver is working as
expected.
