I'm not sure, that's why I said "if everything reverts fine", meaning I
haven't done it, but I know that cron uses a script if it doesn't find a
MTA (ssmtp, sendmail, exim) I'm not sure if it reverts to using the
script.  Worst case, you can still disable sending messages in crontab:

"If MAILTO is defined but empty (MAILTO=3D""), no mail will be sent."
