Is email received by a standard fetchmail mechanism? Is arriving email placed
in a standard location like /var/mail/user or /var/spool/mail/user? I noticed
that the directories /var/mail/ and /var/spool/mail/ exist but they are empty.
The reason that I ask is that I would like to read email
The location /var/spool/mail or /var/mail is only used when a mail
server (sendmail, postfix, etc) is receiving the mail. If mail is
received via POP it is stored elsewhere.
I use getmail, on 770 and gregale. My path is customized,
to meet device's nature.
Also, mutt finds the path and works

If you could find the right one, you would remove power from
