Thanks, I've seen Lennart's reply regarding this in a separate sub-thread (boy, it's getting hard to follow this topic) 2. But as I've shown in my reply to him, cron-jobs output is not logged to this "personal" log, but rather to the system-wide log which isn't readable by regular users. So although the "per-user" syslog feature is really good, it doesn't apply to the case at hand. Do you have a real (i.e: working) solution for users to read the output of their own cron-jobs (besides mail of course). Without this, you propose to cut an important functionality from almost everyone (default). Instead, let's remove MTA from *minimal* install, but not from *default*. -- Oron Peled Voice: +972-4-8228492 oron@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://users.actcom.co.il/~oron "Normally the saying is: 'Fast, Reliable, Cheap.
