I would "cheat". I would put formail -a "Date: `date`" | /usr/bin/procmail -f cron in a bash script called "mailme" in /usr/local/bin and then set CRONDARGS=-m /usr/local/bin/mailme Worked fine here.... Don't forget, of course, to make mailme executable. -- Getting tired of non-Fedora discussions and self-serving posts -- 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?
