Still out of my depth with OpenSMTPD, but... good ol' aliases,of sendmail
lore would have a colon after the "root" up there. The MTAs I know of
all have inherited that.

And... if your MTA distro came with a command "newaliases" try running
that. Many MTAs like to look things up in a hashed version of the textual
file.
