It doesn't work. With, or without the MAILTO. Just for completeness,
I have used this:
MAILTO=gandalf
The "gandalf" user is a local user on the system. I can send local
mail to this user using the "sendmail" postfix program (checked twice).
Cron is still not sending emails. Any idea?
Yes, check the log of cron (/var/log/cron) if you job is run at all; if
so check the log of mails (/var/log/maillog).
Cron jobs are started. Just their output are not sent in emails. The
output of the maillog I already sent before:
May 14 10:53:00 server postfix/sendmail[2958]: fatal: user(1001): No recipient
addresses found in message header
Btw: what is the purpose of putting TEST into ""?
I tend to use double quotes for command line parameters. This is just a
habit that I use it even when it is not really necessary.
Output from /var/log/cron follows
Jun 1 04:55:00 shopzeus /usr/sbin/cron[89378]: (tmp.27734) ORPHAN (no
passwd entry)
Jun 1 04:55:00 shopzeus /usr/sbin/cron[89378]: (root) RELOAD (tabs/root)

(Followed by other similar rows with NSSWITCH and CMD.)
