Chris, This is part of the e-mail that cron sends on completion of the 'logcheck' entry in /etc/cron.daily . Basically these are items to let you know that something changed since the last time it ran. It is not a good idea to disable it, and in fact is a good idea to check on the items it is 'warning' about. If you have more specific questions, don't hesitate to send an e-mail to the list.
