How to stop local mail..
Hi,
I was looking through my drive trying to figure out what was taking up
so much space when I stumbled across my mail file in /var/mail/. It was
over 800MB!
It contained a ton of output from the command line: errors, commands
typed, program output etc.. Most of it was the output from the yes
command when I accidentally ran it in the background once and didn't
notice for a while :P. Why would it send stuff like that to my user
account? How do I stop it?
Thanks,
Leo
