I logged in to a new session and on my screen was the following message:
You have new mail. Last login: Mon Sep 28 19:07:33 2020 from ******
Where is this mail that it is coming up on the server, and how do I check it? How do I clear the message?

Hi @conwayphelps,
Most often these messages contain output of cron jobs, system security reports by logwatch, or similar stuff. The best way would be to read the e-mails.
You should be able to find the emails in the following file
/var/spool/mail/root. You cancatit or use any other command to read the file.Regards, KFSys
