    host1 is domain with ISPConfig 3 and MX for host1 and host2
    host2 is pointing to other machine on DNS of host1

    How to fix this?

    Thanks.

    Choose your editor
    # nano /etc/sysconfig/rkhunter
    # vi /etc/sysconfig/rkhunter
    # vim /etc/sysconfig/rkhunter

    #nano /etc/cron.daily/rkhunter
    #vi /etc/cron.daily/rkhunter
    #vim /etc/cron.daily/rkhunter

    Change e-mail address to existing one. Save file and close.

    Advise: Please remember that rkhunter will try to send e-mail via mailx as root@hostname
    Type hostname in terminal and you will see your hostname.
    example: root@localhost or root@mail dot example dot com
    So, just set an alias for root as I did in my postfix+dovecot configuration and all e-mails sent from and to root@localhost are forwarded to a real e-mail address.

    Hopefully, after 5 years, that problem is already solved ;-)

    I just decided to answer it, because this post is on a first place in Google, when someone is looking for the solution to find out how to solve the problem. Have no idea why it was ignored so long. :) Anyway I hope it will be usefull for others. And just because I have my own website where I learn how to make first step in Linux I try to help if I can.
