[SunHELP] crontab

[Will Hayes]

As long as cron doesn't send output to stderr and stdout, you won't get
email.  Within the crontab, redirect them to /dev/null like this:

* * * * * some_cron_command > /dev/null 2>&1

Hope that helps,
Will

Should be the same way.  Just pipe the email to /dev/null.
