NickTheGreek 160 Report post Posted August 7, 2017 This article demonstrates how to stop receiving e-mail notifications from cron jobs. By default, when a cron job is run, cron sends e-mail notifications to the user account. To disable e-mail notifications, append >/dev/null 2>&1 to the command in the cron job. This redirects all output from the cron job to the /dev/null device. For example, the following cron job does not send e-mail notifications: 15 * * * Sun /home/username/bigtask.sh > /dev/null 2>&1 To resume receiving e-mail notifications from cron jobs, simply remove >/dev/null 2>&1 from the command. https://www.a2hosting.com/kb/developer-corner/linux/disabling-e-mail-notifications-from-cron-jobs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
