   You can choose between some degree of being paranoid or being more practi-
   cal.

   My problem with the paranoid approach here is that I have to log in
   as root regular on any machine that is being monitored by the
   daily and security scripts.

Why is it not a good idea to simply define a mail alias for root and
have the mail end up wherever you like?
