Is there an easy way to make cron not send me an email every time it runs one of my jobs? I have one job that runs every 15 mins, and as you may imagine that generates a lot of mail. Or is there a way clean up an mbox without manually doing it?
man 5 crontab The version of cron I have can be persuaded to not send email A good alternative, in my view, is to write a filter with one's email client to file these emails into a folder which one generally ignores. It's there if needed.
