/var/spool/mail/username or /var/mail/username (one symlinks to the
other, these days), is where the system delivers mail to that user.

When a user gets their mail, it may move into a /home/username/mail or
/home/username/Maildir location.  Perhaps all their mail may end up in
their homespace, or just the messages that they move out of their inbox
(it depends on how they configure things).
