Issue #4022 has been updated by John Ferlito.
Status changed from Rejected to Re-opened
I wonder if we should have another cron type say cron_vars?
environment variables in cron jobs don't really belong to a job but belong to
the job as a whole. Defining them here means that you can have conflicting
variable as is pointed out in the documentation. Maybe we should have something
like
cron_vars { "root":
user => root,
environment => { 'PATH' => '/bin', 'MAILTO' => '[email protected]'}
}

Feature #4022: Crontab environment variables

It would be very useful to be able to specify cron environment variables in the
Puppet-managed per-user crontabs.
For example:
MAILTO="[email protected]"
It is possible to add this by hand and Puppet doesn't mess with it, but it
should be possible to manage this aspect as well with a built in type (rather
than by Augeas for example).
