This I do not have correct idea, what MDA should be here,
So I have posted my postfix main.cf file which has
biff = yes
and I configured postfix as null machine can not receive mails.
and I am using offlinemap for syning mail from gmail,its offlinemaprc I am
pasting here
==========================\/==========================
[general]
autorefresh = 30
accounts = Gmail
maxsyncaccounts = 1
[Account Gmail]
localrepository = Local
remoterepository = Remote
[Repository Local]
type = IMAP
remotehost = localhost
port = 143
remoteuser = sharad
remotepass = ********
[Repository Remote]
type = IMAP
remotehost = imap.gmail.com
remoteuser = address@hidden
remotepass = ********
ssl = yes
maxconnections = 1
realdelete = no
folderfilter = lambda foldername: foldername in ['INBOX']
# realdelete = no
==========================\/==========================
So exactly I can not say who is actually MDA here.

I do not have biff as it conflict with mailutils-comsats in Ubuntu
so using six line biff script.
But still not able to get anything working.
