That's probably internal mail, from some program you're running. Most of the time, that gets sent to root; were you working as root, or yourself? In either case, just run this:

mail

and you can see whatever messages you've got. Warning, you're stuck with a CLI that goes back to when an interactive session used a typewriter, and the commands are, to say the least, concise. Think of vi, and you've got the basic idea, but at least mail's commands aren't cryptic.

Is there anything I can do to get this thing to stop trying to find "fwbackup"?.....I don't like the thought of things running in the back rooms of my computer without my explicit consent!...LoL! (Coming from a Windows environment where all kinds of "executables" might have been running and I'd never know until the Trojan that "delivered" them to my PC decided to take a break and let them run rampant!) I mean unless it's absolutely necessary, and I don't see how it can be since I've never installed....or run any command for Fwbackup....can't I delete the command?....or the file in the folder where it lives?....
