Subject: user crontab?
The MTA has to be running in order for mail from cron to be processed.
Robert doesn't want to put an MTA in. It looks like the cron -m argument
lets you specify the command used to dispatch email, normally sendmail.
However, by using procmail he doesn't need an MTA because he's having
procmail do delivery directly. In that circumstance you don't need an
MTA and therefore, you don't need a running MTA.
Personally I'm having trouble finding the doco for the -m option, and
also don't know where he's putting this setting.
