Thank you for the reply Viktor. I've finally got it partially working
with my GMail account now and most of my cronjob messages are being
sent and returned to me as before. By adding the [ ] around the
smtp.gmail.com it started working.
I still have some that are going to /var/spool/mail/nobody however.

Though in my aliases file I have root set:

# Person who should get root's mail.  This alias
# must exist.
# CHANGE THIS LINE to an account of a HUMAN
root:           [email protected]

I'm sure it's something simple and I'll just have to read and reread
until I get it figured out. It was working well under my ISP until they
decided to start doing something to some of my outgoing cron messages
where they weren't being returned and some even marked as spam.
