make sure to run newaliases after editing /etc/alias.
in your crontab add a MAILTO=you at foo.com so that cron sends you the
output. troubleshoot accordingly.

Also I have tried aliasing root:myemail at foo.com.  I haven't been able to find anything on the possibility of cron overriding mail options for programs that it invokes.
