I have a userID, admin, that I add to my systems to use when I perform system admin functions. I also use this ID when using X-windows, never starting X as root user.
So I needed to check my mail for daily run outputs and so I tried to use su then mail, but I got admin's mail. So I exited su, and tried sudo mail. I got root's mailbox nd I deleted all but two emails. When I q(uit) mail, it said it saved 2 messages in mbox. But when I try to go back in it says I don't have any mail. There is no root directory in /var/mail. Did sudo lose my mbox? Can anyone verify this anomaly? -- System Name: laptop2.StevenFriedrich.org Hardware: 2.80GHz Intel Pentium 4 (HTT) with 2 GB memory OS version: FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE i386 (6.9 MB kernel) manager(s): kde4-4.5.1 X windows: xorg-7.5 X.Org X Server 1.7.5 _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
