Title: Cron Daemon... Mail question
Post by: Henrik on April 12, 2001, 09:31:42 PM

Hi!

I have just installed e-smith in my fathers office and it works great.
The thing is that we use the admin account to receive special mail such as info@ourcompany.se, sales@ourcompany.se and so on. These accounts are not user specified so I thought it was the easiest way to do it without having to create so many user accounts. But there is one thing that is a bit irritating with this and it is the Cron Daemon start mail that arrives every five minutes. So my question is if there is a way to disable this notification?

Or do you have a better solution to handle such special accounts? Maybe I can create nicks to the users but it is nice to get the mail even if somebody writes stupidquestion@ourcompany.se  :-)

Happy Easter to all of you or Glad Påsk as we say it here in Sweden :-)

You mean those messages with just a couple of dots as body???
Just type the following at the console and they are gone.

/sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop fetchmail Verbosity --silent
/sbin/e-smith/signal-event email-update
