Ok...you're going to have to get into the POSTFIX configurations and double check those; by default, POSTFIX dumps it's mail in /var/spool/mail, but that could be mucked up - so best is to fire up Webmin and go into SERVERS, then POSTFIX, then USER MAILBOXES - click on any mailbox and towards the top of the page it will give you the path to the mailbox - and as well, will tell you if it's a zero length file or if there's something in it. A question I would have, though, is when was the last time that you did get mail properly - and were you slurping it from /var/spool/mail, or have you changed anything that you know of on your system? > > My configs always dump to /var/spool/mail/yournamegoeshere > > > > ...so it's readily readable/find-able... > ************************************************************************* > My /var/spool/mail is empty there isn't user name, I have tried to command > set spoolfile but it didn't help? > How I can put the procmail on, could it help? > > Thank you advance PROCMAIL runs from an RC file in your /etc directory - namely, /etc/procmailrc - but prior to just jumping into that particular file and it's structure, you're going to want to do some reading up on it. PROCMAIL can be quite powerful for blocking spam, rerouting mail internally on your system (or on your network) - heaps of different functions.
