It’s being rejected before it even reaches the mailbox, so forwarding won’t work. Crond should really be using the MAILTO variable and it’s not.

I have a couple of cron jobs I was expecting to see in my email that never showed up. It turns out that they were delivered to root, which is restricted on our exchange server, instead of the address I defined. Please help. The quick fix for such issues is to put a .forward file in the /root folder containing your target e-mail address, ecssupp...@csusb.edu _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
