Bug#620392: cron looses job output if no mta is installed

[Adam Heath]

package: cron
version: 3.0pl1-106

cron has no depends on any mta; instead, it just has a recommends. 
However, when no mta is installed, the output of the job being run 
gets thrown away.  This is very bad, and makes debugging things difficult.

I suggest that in this case the output should be sent to syslog, at 
the least.
