But the content of the mails is useless. It basically seems to list a part of my music collection in an unsorted order. Why? I don't know of any other package which sends daily cron mails without interesting content. > I would suggest having a look at crons manpage and possibly > reconfiguring cron to meet your needs. What exactly do you mean? I want to get cron mails, if something _interesting_ happens in a cron script (read: it produces output, like warnings or errors). The ampache cron script is run by anacron. Its manpage states: If a job generates any output on its standard output or standard error, the output is mailed to the user running Anacron (usually root), or to the address contained by the MAILTO environment variable in the crontab, if such exists. So, only a global setting. Turing that off would turn off all cron mails, which is not what I want.
