This should send stderr output to mail and will contain the error message.
There is no stdout to capture because of the --quiet parameter.
Simpler even than diddling with the MAILTO var.
Uhh, unless I'm missing something obvious, that would send an email
every 4 hours, usually with no message body, but containing one when
there were errors. Definitely NOT what is desired.
Or perhaps your mail command works differently than mine?
