I was messing around with sendmail in Rails a year ago and have had this message popping up in the terminal after every command ever since:
You have new mail in /var/mail/Lance
How do I properly get rid of that so the message goes away? I ever use any of that functionality and don't have mail on my computer. There's one file in /var/mail
called lance
, and it's huge. Can I just remove it?
