Hi,
1)
MAILFROM= is supported for a long time, is it enough ?
v1.5.18 : 2020-12-26
Various improvements to email on error:
* Revert "Use DynamicUser=yes for error email generator"
* Use sysusers.d snippet instead
* Support for MAILFROM variable [thanks MarcoCLA]
2) _cron-failure should had been (re-)created by systemd-sysusers:
$ cat debian/systemd-cron.sysusers
u _cron-failure -:systemd-journal - /nonexistent /usr/sbin/nologin
$ cat debian/rules
execute_after_dh_auto_install:
# automatic with DebHelper >= 14
dh_installsysusers
