I don't think you can do that Ernie - I would get rid of that file.

If you just want the summary you can try losing the "--progress" switch 
on the rsync command line.  I know it's tedious, but wade though `man 
rsync`.  It's worth the effort; I think it's an excellent tool, great 
for saving bandwidth, invented (I think) by the same clever Aussie who 
does Samba.

As far as the log is concerned, I just put:
MAILTO=peter
at the top of the cron job.
