I have written a short bash script to have root run sa-learn on my spam-uncaught file once each week. When sa-learn runs it posts a message to the console on the number of messages read and the number of messages added to the database.

Where does this message appear if the script is run from cron.weekly? The sa-learn man page does not offer an option for 'quiet' output so I don't know if that result message can be suppressed.

Typically, cron output ends up in your system log (where, exactly, depends on your setup) unless you've asked cron to e-mail you the output by setting the MAILTO variable.

If you don't want sa-learn to emit anything, ever, then just tell it so:

sa-learn --spam /path/to/folder >/dev/null 2>&1
