It's going to want an e-mail address if I recall correctly.  Give it
whatever @localhost.  It won't matter because then you simply click on
the folder icon to navigate to your system mail and voilà (assuming
that you've forwarded your root mail to your regular user account).

I'm not on my Linux box right now, plus I un-installed it after I
tested it as I prefer Evolution on my Linux platform (I use
Thunderbird when in Windows) so I can't answer any better than that
right now but I'm sure someone else can fill in the blanks at this
point.  It will work.  I got it to work on mine no problem.
