If you're not reading your root-mail folder (which sometimes has important information like the status of the system and so on), you should forward it to an email address which is read by the system administrator. Just add a "root: newmailaddress" in /etc/aliases, do a "newaliases" and your root-mail file will stay clean. # Pretty much everything else in this file points to "root", so # you would do well in either reading roots mailbox or forwarding # roots email from here. root: edwin Edwin -- Edwin Groothuis | Personal website: http://www.MavEtJu.org edwin@mavetju.org | Interested in MUDs?
