Description Kristoffer 2021-04-21 15:01:04 UTC

Since the cron daemon sends e-mails to root by default, shouldn't there be a use "mta" in the init script?

Comment 1 Kristoffer 2021-04-21 15:05:30 UTC

Or maybe want mta ?

Comment 2 Alexey 2023-02-09 08:59:08 UTC

This can be achieved by adding `rc_need="mta"` to /etc/conf.d/fcron on user side.
