More important than whether /usr/bin/Mail will report no mail
is whether it will send mail to the appropriate user.

        /usr/bin/Mail <amanda_user>

and get a message to the amanda user?


BTW you say the Mail program reported:

        No mail for Amanda.

Is your amanda user actually "Amanda" with a capital 'A'?
If not why is Mail reporting it capitalized?
If yes, are your various config files consistant in
specifying the amanda user with (or without) a capital?
