$fp = fopen('/var/mail/myaccount','w');
fwrite($fp,'');
fclose($fp);
that could work. I was going to suggest doing:
unlink('/var/mail/myaccount');
touch('/var/mail/myaccount');
But I assume that since you're against deleting it, then there must be
some sort of permissions in place that you don't want changed.
