Now this is fantastic and all, but I hadn't checked my root email for about 4 days, and I had something like 4000 cron emails. Is there any way to stop cron from sending you emails about certain cronjobs? I changed it to update every 5 minutes now, but still, going through and deleting 200 emails a day is pretty absurd. -Josh To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
