Various places. Look at /var/spool/mail/yyy first -
/var/spool/mail/username might be pointing elsewhere. pine -f
/var/spool/mail/yyy
Pine looks in /var/spool/Mail (note the capital M) ... First go to pine
settings and uncheck the "move read messages to mbox".
Then look in ~mbox (pine -f ~mbox).
Just see what's there and get back to the list.
