I assume your cron jobs are sending mail or something similar, you can either disable it on the configuration, or uninstall it using setup.exe (in that case cron will still send messages, but if everything reverts fine, it will send them to a file). By 'configuration' I really mean 2 possibilities, cron can be configured to send or not send emails, and ssmtp's own configuration can also be changed to not send messages. --=20 Ren=E9 Berber -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
