Currently I'm able to get emails from 'cron daemon' but not the rest of
the system emails. So how can I get them please?
Thanks
Sharon.

Interesting question!
I remember doing some stuff (?) with that once.
Now my /var/mail is empty tho. Hey, at least
I don't get those annoying messages in the VTs
about new mail...
If there is support for that there should be
a select method (see
`gnus-secondary-select-methods') but even if
there isn't, it can possibly be done using
respooling if nothing else...
Can you do 'ls -l' in that dir and possibly
find out more about the current format?
Do file(1), cat(1), the works...

It is a good start :)

You can add the spool to the `mail-sources' variable, see the "Mail
Source Specifiers" part of the Gnus manual.

Thanks to both Eric and Emanuel I've got it working now.
This is what I did -
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq mail-sources '((file :path "/var/spool/mail/boudiccas")
(file :path "/var/spool/mail/mail")
(pop :server "mail.plus.net" :user "skimble" :password "12345654321")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I added the middle line, and then just changed the permissions for the
system/root mails such that I could read and write to it. And now it
works perfectly, so thanks folks. That's been bugging me for months and
I'm glad that its finally sorted out :)
Thanks
Sharon.
