I want to cycle the mailog of exim every day, just after midnight, after first emailing it to someone. Using man 5 crontab, I saw various examples of how to set that up, and there's a script in /usr/exim/bin called exicyclog that will take care of that side of things. Where I am hopelessly confused, is how do I er...well...call cron to tell it to execute the script???
