In previous openSUSE installations I have checked the box for the first user to get system mail, and it works. On this new 12.1 installation with KDE 4.7.2, with a pre-existing /home, I did the same, but no system mail comes to the user. Even after doing :~ # service postfix start :~ # chkconfig postfix on an incantation that I found on a forum, root now gets mail, but it is not redirected to me.
