Hello,

I am using the busybox cron applet and would like to receive the output of the jobs by email. I would not like to install an MTA on the host, but rather have the busybox sendmail applet handle the sending. Currently, such a setup does not work. Apparently, this is due to the sendmail applet requiring the use of the -f option to specify the sender, which the cron applet does not use. There is some code in the sendmail applet to automatically determine the sender, but that has been commented out.

I think it would be reasonable to make the cron and sendmail applets interoperate. Any opinions on which applet this should be fixed in?

BR,
Kaarle
