You're being informed about the content of the mail-drop file whose name
is held in the $MAIL environment variable.
E.g.:
% echo $MAIL
/var/spool/mail/rschulz

I use a KMail Receiving account of type "local" targeting the
aforementioned mail drop file to receive such locally delivered mail.
As far as I know, all the usual Unix / Linux command-line mail clients
will retrieve mail from this file by default.
