Command for viewing emails in Linux

Turn: http://blog.csdn.net/tangy110/article/details/6546622

The system provides an email system for communication between users. When a user opens a terminal to register and log on, the system displays the following information:

You have mail.

In this case, you can enterMailCommand to read mail:

$ Mail

The mail program displays users' emails one by one, and displays the latest emails in chronological order. Emails are asked every time a letter is displayed.

Whether the user wants to process the letter. If the user answers D, the email is deleted. If you press the Enter key, the email is not modified.

(The letter is still saved and can be read again next time); if you answer P, you need to repeat the letter; s filename indicates you want to put the letter

Store the named file. If you answer Q, it means you want to exit from mail.
