In fact that is a more flexible option, you could make cron send emails to several addresses, also to different ones for each job. -- René Berber -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Yes, in /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf, but when you install the ssmtp package you are supposed to run ssmtp-config. Anyway you can edit the file, just define root and rewriteDomain so that cron uses those. -- René Berber -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
