This question has been answered before. Recently. In this group.
You cannot determine the address of your mailserver by running any
command. It's not possible.
You need to be told.
By someone who knows where your email is stored when it arrives.
A guess could be "pop.ai.mit.edu", if you're on ai.mit.edu.
Best regards,
