Hi,
I seem to be having some problems with the scheduled tasks (crontab) not sending out emails after I updated the Qmail mail server.
I was trying to get something else to work and read on these forums to carry out the steps indicated at: http://forum.parallels.com/showpost.php?p=333843&postcount=3. So I did, and after adding the repository I did a
And the following packages were upgraded (taken from yum.log):
And now when a cron task runs, it doesn't send out an email containing the output of the command to the specified address, even though it was working fine before the above packages were upgraded. Cron is running, since the commands are executed like they should be, and I can send and receive email fine via my mail client and through webmail.
Any idea why the above upgrades have broken crontabs ability to send out email? I have even tried changing the email addresses in the Scheduled Tasks section of Plesk but it still doesn't work.
Cheers,
Daniel.
