Hello!
Sorry my bad English.
This is the point at which $HOME, any users .netrc, .forward etc. A particularly interested .mailrc, can not find any system (info mailutils scattered fragments), nor in the internet (not a bunch of Compliance each other information). There is somewhere a description for what, and for everyone? Or at least specifically .mailrc

Hello.

The file .mailrc in your ~ folder is used and created by mailx https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/mail-client/mailx

paste the output from ls -la ~ in here and perhaps we can get those files sorted.

globus ... if I understand the question correctly, you're looking for the commands used in mailrc? You can look at the manpage (here from mail-client/mailx) ...

Code:
% man mail | less -p 'SUMMARY'

... or for a more complete rundown, the Mail Reference Manual (pdf).

best ... khay
