解决linux下创建用户时出现 Creating mailbox file: 文件已存在

Posted 2021-11-26 tan-y-q

原来linux下添加用户后,会在系统里自动加一个邮箱(系统邮箱),路径是:/var/spool/mail/用户名.
      可以直接用命令#rm -rf /var/spool/mail/用户名
      这样就可以再次添加同一名字的用户.

 

解决You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/root提示

终端远程登陆后经常提示You have new mail in /var/spool/mail/root

这个提示是LINUX会定时查看LINUX各种状态做汇总，每经过一段时间会把汇总的信息发送的root的邮箱里，以供有需之时查看。

一般这种情况mail的内容就只是一些正常的系统信息或者是比较重要的错误报告。

如果你安装了mutt的话直接用这个命令就可以查看mail的内容（用root登陆先），没有装的话用cat /var/spool/mail/root查看（用root登陆先）。

查看内容：

[[email protected] ~]# cat /var/spool/mail/root

也可以设置把这个信息发送到管理员邮箱
