Where local messages are delivered depends on your configuration, but
/var/mail, /var/spool/mail, and $HOME/Maildir are typical locations.
The logs will tell you how Postfix delivers a message. Always read
the logs.

Postfix is only an SMTP server. Unless you read the messages directly
from the file system, which I don't think SquirrelMail supports, you
will need an IMAP server.

Yes.

I don't understand this question. You use your favorite editor to
change your table so that they adher to the documented format for
that particular file. Why would you need to erase anything?
