Does it though? There's always /var/log/cron. Or that other journal
log thing that is too convoluted for me to want to use.
It depends on what you are doing in your cron scripts. It can be argued
that mine really don't need to go to emails, but I decided to do it...
There's a tiny MDA called femtomail that delivers into a Maildir.
Provide it a USERNAME and MAILBOX_PATH and do a make and it will produce
a binary (back in 2016 it was 38724 bytes) usable for the specified user.
sendmail is 4.5M, dovecot is almost 10M, postfix is almost 5M.
Comparatively femtomail is miniscule. Now I realize that comparing
femtomail to those is like comparing a checker player to a chess master
but it does look like it might fit the bill.
