I agree with Seth. Since most desktop users don't have a centralized
logserver but do have an e-mail account somewhere, it makes perfect sense.
We need to work some on getting e-mail going somewhere useful, though, and
on making the e-mails sent be not "junk".
I'm trying to think of a single thing that logwatch (or cron) would send
about now that would be useful to forward to a random desktop user's yahoo
address. I'm failing.
Most people would probably like to know if smartctl thinks their disk
drive is likely to fail or if a raid member has already failed and they
are running in degraded mode. And maybe if a bazillion ssh login
attempts have failed. As for cron, that would be up to what the user
has scheduled. It just needs to behave as documented and expected.
