@ankitnit
Please post what Operating System and version you are running?
Code:
uname -a  # Blotting anything confidential with Xs

Is this a server or a workstation?

The short answer is to use mailx . With no parameters the
mailx command provides a simple interface to read mail from your local server.

The long answer is to configure a more user-friendly mail client, but at the moment we know nothing about your computer(s).

What most people actually do is make the "reply to" address on outgoing mail match an existing external mail account.


@pamu
What has your post go to do with reading mail or using mailx?
