I added it now. It matches cronie alternative implementation roughly at the same time https://github.com/cronie-crond/cronie/commit/6181605fafe6aaedc0c19a8bdc85a335403b42d8 > Also, can this variable be configured in a file that is dropped into > some directory, to avoid editing the global /etc/crontab? e.g. > /etc/crontab.d/ or something similar? /etc/crontab _is_ the main config file which other jobs (like in /etc/cron.{d,hourly,daily,...}/ will inherit mailing settings from. ("std::optional<std::string> fallback_mailto;" in code) /etc/sysconfig/crond & /etc/default/PACKAGE are old Redhat & Debian things, mostly deprecated by systemd config drop-ins. Maybe you'd want to read from /etc/aliases ?

I'm using nullmailer myself but I can't reproduce it. I'm off, I'll check again next week Greetings
