Thank you @KFerdinandov.
I got to access my mail.
After that, the message in my terminal is as shown in the link below. I just don’t know to proceed next to clear off this item.

HI @giap88,
Most probably that’s a message sent from the system or from a cron job.
Where is the message?
It’s likely to be in the spool file: /var/mail/$USER or /var/spool/mail/$USER are the most common locations on Linux and BSD.
(Other locations are possible – check if $MAIL is set – but by default, the system only informs you about /var(/spool)/mail.)
Usually the spool file is in a very simple mbox format, so you can open it in a text editor or pager.
Kind regards, Kalin
