No, your local mail delivery agent keeps the incoming mail in
/var/mail.  Mutt has nothing to do with that.  If you want to
configure that in detail, look into procmail.

True.  At the very minimum, you should be willing to edit ASCII text
configuration files.  But it's not as bad as it looks, once you
understand the "philosophy".
