How to access the mail the cron process is trying to send

[Cino]

I've been running Kiwi to keep tabs of my syslogs. I've noticed a lot of entries like this 'cron[XXXX]: (root) MAIL (mailed XX bytes of output but got status 0x0001)' Is there anyway I can see what the message it's trying to send?

Thanks,

Cino

Not really. It's just any output from a cron job. Doesn't mean it's an error, just that a job produced some output at all.

In order to see that you'd actually have to setup an MTA like postfix on the router and configure a proper mail alias for root.
