Tried with mailx package instead and i didn't have any issue.




*mail -f /var/spool/mail/root/var/spool/mail/root: 0 messages*
And the file has messages.




*ls -l /var/spool/mail/root -rw-rw---- 1 root mail 142196 Aug  6 08:51
/var/spool/mail/root*
Is there any way to run it in debug mode?

Thanks,
