There is a /etc/mail.rc but no info > about making mail(the program) read the mail in mail/new thank you mail/new seems to suggest that you are using "Maildir-style" folders. Does "mail/" also contain "cur" and "tmp" folders? The mail(1) utility of FreeBSD can't read Maildirs, so you'll have to find a mail reader that supports this format, or switch to plain "mbox-style" folders.
