You are right, the change was in the announcement:
http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2008-03/msg00379.html
So now it is /var/spool/mail/<username>; you can do what many others do
(Solaris and Linux), create a link from /var/mail to /var/spool/mail :
ln -s /var/spool/mail /var/mail
BTW, I already have that link, but I don't remember if I did it or
installing exim or uw-imap did it (a long time ago since nowadays I
build those packages myself -- current exim is 4.69, Cygwin is still at
4.68).
