I'm having the same issue even after trying with the suggested method. It is creating the filename with os user in the source system instead of receipient user in /usr/mail folder and I'm not getting mail at user@domain address.
The mail file on the source system should be in text format and readable with say "cat" or of course with "mailx". Is the content or the file the mail you sent, or a bounce?
Any clues in your mail log?
