That's funny, I haven't figured out how to get it to stop mailing me it 
results! The manpage (or some other documentation I found) says to add the line 
MAILTO=<user_to_mail_to> or if you prefer, leave it blank and it should never 
mail. I've found the MAILTO line doesn't seem to make any difference. If the 
cron job produces output to STDOUT (or maybe its STDERR), I get a friendly 
reminder from cron. If the cron job produces no output, I don't get a message 
from cron.

If anyone really knows how to get cron to stop pestering me, let me know.

I would be grateful if anyone can tell me how to get cron to
mail me its results daily. Thanx... :-)
