I have been digging for how to do today and found something interesting:

Back in Fedora 20, there was no MTA!

https://www.mhonarc.org/archive/html/procmail/2014-01/msg00000.html

I worked on cron outbut via procmail way back then and used:

CRONDARGS=-m "/usr/bin/procmail -f cron"

So I just tried this and I have one problem with it.  No DATE header.

So my new script is better, so far, than procmail.  That is until someone tells me how to get procmail to add a DATE header.  Or maybe better for CRON to put it in, and the DATE/TIME it started the task, not when PROCMAIL would process the output.

thanks

BTW, Here is my current mycron script:

local]# cat mycron
#!/bin/sh

exec 3>> /var/spool/mail/$USER
currentDate=$(date +'%a %b %d %T %Y')
echo "From cron@localhost  $currentDate" >&3
currentDate2=$(date +'%a, %e %b %Y %T %z (%Z)')
echo "Date: $currentDate2" >&3
(cat) >&3
echo "" >&3

Thanks for all the help getting to this point.
