Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: mailman
Servers running mailman on Ubuntu Hardy keep sending this mail nearly
every night. It's quite annoying.
Subject: Cron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / &&
run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily )
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
Re-opening all log files
This is caused by /etc/logrotate.d/mailman, which in every postrotate
script does this:
[ -f '/var/run/mailman/mailman.pid' ] &&
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/mailmanctl reopen || exit 0
I suggest changing this to:
[ -f '/var/run/mailman/mailman.pid' ] &&
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/mailmanctl reopen >/dev/null || exit 0
...which doesn't cause any unnecessary cron mail.
I'd recommend fixing this as fast as possible, since frequent cron mail
quickly will cause users to ignore all mails with the same subject. This
could hide issues which do require attention.
