Hello-

"cron" (periodic task scheduler) on most systems redirects the output of
anything it runs into an email sent to root@hostname.  Look in your
/etc/cron.weekly file to see what the heck is running.

This is actually a handy feature; muy backup script runs in cron, and all
the status output is conveniently emailed to root, and since root is
aliased in qmail, it goes to the "real" sysadmin account
