Aleksey,
Good eye. I did put that second parameter on my actual promise. I just missed
putting it in my example.
Yours worked as well. How is yours different from that of Seva? I am just
trying to understand which one would be more applicable to what I am trying to
do.

Thank you, Seva.
This worked.

Hi, Jerome. I suggest using cf-promises to check the syntax on your policy:
[cfengine00 ~]# cf-promises -f ./test.cf
Arguments to function readfile(.) do not tally. Expect 2 not 1
Promise (version not specified) belongs to bundle 'g' in file
'./test.cf' near line 5
[cfengine00 ~]#

I guess, you want something like

Aleksey,
I came up with the following but I seem to be misinterpreting the reference
manual. I have also used canonify to no avail. Help.

"temp" string => readfile( "/tmp/test.txt" );

I imagine you'd just run "/var/cfengine/bin/cfagent" f
Yes, you can do it using the ifvarclass, which converts a variable to
a class. Could you please read the ifvarclass section of the
reference manual, and let me know if you have any questions.

Well, you can define class-based mailfrom/mailto in the executor control body,
but I'm not sure how far you can use soft classes there.
Before you get started on this, I think you should ask yourself this:
1) Do I want to maintain all of crontab (regardless of which machine gets what)
with CFEngine, or
2) Do I want to maintain a PART of crontab with CFEngine (and handle machine
differences manually on each machine)
Personally,
