    In /var/mail is also mail for administrator and www-data (Ispconfig system on Etch).

    Is there any way to redirect that mail to my regular mailbox? Maybe ther is some other way to check that mail with mail client?

    Thanks, David

    That works, thanks.

    Now, how can I move existing mails in administrator file to my existing user mailbox? Rename, chown and..?

    Are you using mbox or Maildir format?

    In Maildir format, each mail is saved in a separate file. I think you can simply copy the file to the new Maildir.
