The variable you are looking for is the rmail-primary-inbox-list.  See
paths.el:

(defconst rmail-primary-inbox-list 
  (if (memq system-type '(hpux usg-unix-v))
      '("~/mbox" "/usr/mail/$LOGNAME")
    '("~/mbox" "/usr/spool/mail/$USER"))
 "List of files which are inboxes for user's primary mail file ~/RMAIL.")

But note the comment at the top of paths.el, and modify this variable
as it says:

;; If these settings are not right, override them with `setq'
;; in site-init.el.  Do not change this file.
