I have set up a NetBSD system on a 386, and I want to run the daily cleanup
(in /etc/daily) without crond mailing to root every time it has been run.
Does anybody know how I can prevent crond from mailing to the crontab-user
after it has finished the job?
Setting the MAILTO-variable or simply rm'ing the mail won't do, I want to
be able to stop the mailing alltogether...
Hints, anyone?
