What is the minimum configuration necessary to receive local mail?
I have a small home network. I have a server running qmail which handles all
my email. I use Kmail as my email client, connecting to qmail via POP3 and
SMTP. The problem is that I do not receive output from local cron jobs.

Folks,
Happy festive stuff. I hope you have all sated much consumerist avarice
and enjoyed gouts of inebriated hedonism at this time of religious &
spiritual neglect.
I'm hoping that someone can advise me about local mail delivery. At
present any messages produced by my cron jobs are emailed,

I just installed courier. I think it is great. It comes with everything!
An IMAP server, POP3, filters (replaces procmail), SSL, and of course
ESMTP MTA.
Even better is IMHO courier. It's based on qmail's idea, but is a little
bit "normalized".

If you don't want to hack cryptic config files, I suggest you give Postfix

not have sendmail installed. I'd rather not install it. I have ssmtp,
