There appears to be a problem with your incm. You could try to run gsb
(if you are familiar with the gdb debugger) on incm. Or you could try
to run strace (linux) or truss(solaris):

strace /usr/local/emacs/mew4/bin/incm -d /var/spool/mail/fgs -i $HOME/Mail/inbox

This will show all system calls. Try to see if you can spot any error
where you get Permission denied or if files are opened in strange
locations.
