Two notes - the first is that your version of fetchmail is old (though
that doesn't change the fact that it's working :>), the other is that
your version of sendmail is old.

From the log it looks like you are using Sendmail BTW (Sendmail
8.13.1/8.13.1), not postfix.  If this isn't what you expected I
suggest you stop sendmail and start postfix :)

As for where the mail is going, well, that depends on your config for
Sendmail (currently), what LDA (Local Delivery Agent) and what
POP/IMAP server you have installed.  You'll probably find it in
/var/mail/txjin, though there are a few other places (including
$HOME/mail, /var/spool/mail/cyrus etc).  The best bet is to simply to
start your installed POP/IMAP server and point your mail client at it.
