Hi! My problem is that cron won't send out mail, anymore regardless of
what I set the MAILTO-variable to in my crontab.  This worked as
expected before, but I can't remember what happend around the time it
stopped.

The system is FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE, and regular sending of mail like
"echo foo |mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]" works without problems.  It's only cron that
appears not to supply the target email as specified in MAILTO.

What is wrong here?  I don't really know how to debug this.  Can
crontabs be executed verbosely somehow?  I see I'm getting these errors
in /var/log/cron 

--
/usr/sbin/cron[3940]: getting vmemoryuse resource limit: Invalid
argument
--

..might that be it?

An error message could look like this:

        Subject: 
Mail failure - no
recipient
addresses
           Date: 
Thu, 25 Mar 2004
03:30:06 +0100

A message that you sent contained no recipient addresses, and therefore
no
delivery could be attempted.
