 |
|
It's possible to make mail(yes) in fcrontab to work for a user as well as root.
| Code: | # gpasswd -a $USER nullmail #First
# chgrp nullmail /etc/nullmailer/{adminaddr,defaultdomain,me} #second
|
Regards
FogWatch.
Without the above I received the following error:

Just in case someone else runs into this...
The can be caused by the /etc/nullmailer directory not being world readable so a chmod 755 /etc/nullmailer will fix it (the files inside can still be 640). |

| Thanks so much! In my case, I added a new non-world-readable control file and it was much later that I realized no mail was getting sent! Your post made me think to look and find that this was the case. |
