I enabled nightly yum and wanted to get a report of what it did without having to go read the log and so I wanted to set it up via e-mail and logwatch as someone here suggested. I went to set up the mail account and in /var/spool/mail there were two files (root and one other system user) but none for my account. Both of these files showed locked. I don't understand why I had no mail file. In any case I went to bed without working on it further and wondered if logwatch would generate a file during the night. It did so as there is an e-mail there with my user name. I then went into Evolution and setup my mail account and it shows checking the spool but I don't get any mail. I did set up /etc/aliases for me to get roots mail and applied newaliases. I pointed Evolution to the file with my name in /var/spool/mail. Thanks.
