Not sure I grok the question. But the logic is:

If an MTA is installed then the output of cronjobs is sent to the local
user that owns the cron job in question. If no MTA is installed (which
we want to make the default with this feature) the output is written to
syslog instead (which means it ends up in the journal and you can view
it with "journalctl -u crond").
