Yes, they can. Cron can work whether you know about it or not
eg. "journalctl | grep cron | less
# time journalctl | grep cron

Not that useful. Any idea on how to improve that?
On my desktop it took 6 seconds, starting July 6, but it had only a few
lines about the yum-cron problems the last two weeks. So on that
computer I seem to miss a lot of lines in the systemd-log, that is
present in the /var/log/cron file.
Strange things are happening, apparently...
Has all the software that (potentially) sends email been modified to
accommodate a crippled system?
How is it crippled, it's still logged?
One example. I get mail from cron, using yum-cron, with contents like
the following. How is that handled without a MTA? Never got a response
from Lennart Poettering on the devel list...
