Cron actually sends both stdout and stderr to email, so if you only want stderr, then you should redirect stdout to /dev/null. There isn't a -quiet option or similar for Emacs in batch mode, so it's all up to the shell. -- GnuPG/PGP key: subkeys.gnupg.net 0D2D3F9E _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
