cron only sends an email if the job produces any output. If the script follows the *nix principle of succeed quietly, fail noisily, you should only get emails when things go wrong. However without seeing your mail-backup script, it is hard to say what needs to change. The "|| true " part means this cron task will always return success, even if the script fails, which possibly is not what you want. -- Neil Bothwick The gene pool could use a little chlorine.
