Yes, sendmail.sendmail is the mta on my system too. I see no sendmail error after I remove the r2e entryl from the crontab. rss2email should not be using sendmail. I start getting sendmail and crond entries as soon as I add r2e to the crontab. I see that one crond entry is made every time a cronjob is run. Now that being solved. I have to look why I have numerous "fedora rngd[878]: read error" entries. -- Regards, Sudhir Khanger, sudhirkhanger.com. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- [sudhir@fedora ~]$ journalctl -b | grep sendmail Jan 02 21:00:11 fedora sendmail[7216]: My unqualified host name (fedora) unknown; sleeping for retry Jan 02 21:01:11 fedora sendmail[7216]: unable to qualify my own domain name (fedora) -- using short name Jan 02 21:01:12 fedora sendmail[7216]: u02FVC8x007216: from=sudhir, size=598, class=-60, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201601021531.u02FVC8x007216@fedora>, relay=sudhir@localhost Jan 02 21:01:12 fedora sendmail[7216]: u02FVC8x007216: to=sudhir, ctladdr=sudhir (1000/1000), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=138598, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1] [sudhir@fedora ~]$ journalctl -b | grep sendmail Jan 02 21:00:11 fedora sendmail[7216]: My unqualified host name (fedora) unknown; sleeping for retry Jan 02 21:01:11 fedora sendmail[7216]: unable to qualify my own domain name (fedora) -- using short name Jan 02 21:01:12 fedora sendmail[7216]: u02FVC8x007216: from=sudhir, size=598, class=-60, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201601021531.u02FVC8x007216@fedora>, relay=sudhir@localhost Jan 02 21:01:12 fedora sendmail[7216]: u02FVC8x007216: to=sudhir, ctladdr=sudhir (1000/1000), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=138598, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1] Jan 02 21:30:11 fedora sendmail[8978]: My unqualified host name (fedora) unknown; sleeping for retry Jan 02 21:31:11 fedora sendmail[8978]: unable to qualify my own domain name (fedora) -- using short name Jan 02 21:31:11 fedora sendmail[8978]: u02G1Brd008978: from=sudhir, size=598, class=-60, nrcpts=1, msgid=<201601021601.u02G1Brd008978@fedora>, relay=sudhir@localhost Jan 02 21:31:11 fedora sendmail[8978]: u02G1Brd008978: to=sudhir, ctladdr=sudhir (1000/1000), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=138598, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1] Jan 02 22:00:11 fedora sendmail[10539]: My unqualified host name (fedora) unknown; sleeping for retry [sudhir@fedora ~]$ journalctl -b | grep crond Jan 02 20:13:19 fedora audit[1]: SERVICE_START pid=1 uid=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:init_t:s0 msg='unit=crond comm="systemd" exe="/usr/lib/systemd/systemd" hostname=? addr=? terminal=? res=success' Jan 02 20:13:19 fedora crond[1233]: (CRON) INFO (RANDOM_DELAY will be scaled with factor 84% if used.)
