|
**Note:**
|
||
|
|
- Normaly cron send task outputs (echo) via mail. As the MTA (Mail Transfert Agent), may not be set up,
|
||
|
|
the crontab line redirect the outputs into `/dev/null`.
|
||
|
|
- No sudo is needed, msmtp and crontab are call with current user.
|
||
|
|
- The logs can be seen using (with sudo): `sudo grep CRON /var/log/syslog`
