Well, since your cronjob is a program which performs an email function and since those errors being reported are referencing files in your directory I would say the most likely cause is the interaction between your cronjob and an MTA and not anything having to do with files in /etc. You said that installing sendmail "did clear up a lot of entries". So, are you still getting errors? As I said, the rss2email package may work best with "sendmail" as opposed to another mta such as postfix. Is this what you see now with the alternatives command? [root@meimei etc]# alternatives --list | grep mta mta manual /usr/sbin/sendmail.sendmail Would have been nice to know what it was before you installed it. -- In reality, some people should stick to running Windows and others should stay away from computers altogether. -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
