It appears that for reasons I don't understand its not possible / practical to use the crontab command or any variation thereof to setup what should be a very simple job, however I can't imagine why it isn't feasible to achieve the result I want by adding an entry in "etc/crontab". OK, now since "man cron" & "man crontab" don't provide any useful information on this issue, I need to figure out exactly what to tell "/etc/crontab". I figure something like "mail blah@somewhere.com <ppp.log" is a start, but how to tell mail about "control-d" ??
