Almost there with postfix.
Google AI had me set:
home_mailbox = Mailbox
and the mail was going to ~/Mailbox
So I changed it to:
home_mailbox = /var/mail
Which is where mutt looks by default.
I also turned on:
mail_spool_directory = /var/mail
We will see how that goes. I have the official

logwatch is installed, but not postfix. How did that happen?
What is the default activity for installing logwatch?

I have an Ubuntu server with logwatch installed, so it has all the
'right' postfix setups and I get daily logwatch reports.
I also added a cron shutdown as follows:
10 4 * * * root /usr/sbin/shutdown
And I get a daily email saying the system will shutdown in ~1min. Nice.

If I provide:
rsync -ah --stats /home/rgm/r/ rsync://rgm@homestor/rgm/r/
I get prompted for the password in the /etc/rsyncd.secrets file, and it
works.
I now create a local file ~/rsync.pswd with chmod 440, and run:
rsync -ah --password-file=/home
