linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx works just fine.

I have a mail account set up in Kmail to receive system mail. Would
linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx get delivered there? I suspect it would go into my
normal Inbox. Of course, I could then set up a filter to send it to my System
mail folder, but I'd like to understand a bit more how system mail works.

Thanks,
