The mailhub seems to be a good place to think about. Leave a "tail -f /var/log/mail/current" running in a shell while you wait for a cron to be executed. When it runs, check out what happens in the logfile. Regards, Saffi -- Ricardo Saffi Marques Laboratório de Administração e Segurança de Sist

I think it's not a group issue. I put myself at cron and crontab groups, just in case. If it was a group thing, you wouldn't even be able to "crontab -e". I edit my cron table using: "crontab -e" (no extra parameters needed). Check it out by "crontab -l". For root, I do the same. Regards, Saffi

Re: [gentoo-user] cron and ssmtp

I'm using ssmtp to send mail on several boxes. One of the boxes is running a real MTA and acts as the hub for the other boxes. Check /var/log/mail*. I'm assuming you set mailhub=foo in your ssmtp.conf, which means you're using the box foo to relay your mail. It's possible that the hub is refusing
