Stop conjob from sending emails

[Rob]

Hi,

my serverprovider chanched some things and upraded there systems. From then on i recieve an email from my cronjob telling me each time it is running:

------------------------------------------------------------
CoMoblog 1.1 batch - 2007-XX-XX XX:XX:XX
------------------------------------------------------------

** No mail found **

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Can i only get an email when ther is some new posts....?

Do i have to change things in the admin section in the "comoblog_batch.php"
maybe here?:
- - - - -
      $howmany_msg = $pop3->numMsg();
     
      if ($howmany_msg == 0) {
         if ($BATCH_LOG) echo "\n ** No mail found **\n";
        
         // pop3 disconnect
          $pop3->disconnect();
      }
      else { 

- - - - - -

thanks

If you append the following to the end of your crontab line then it will stop it emailing you

> /dev/null

Unfortunatly, to only get it to email you when there is an error would require a patch.

Sorry,
but i don't understand were to but /dev/null exactly.
do you mean i have to change anything in the cronjob menue in my confixx administration?
thanx

Normally if you just add the >/dev/null command to the end of the crontab entry in your admin pages that will block anything being sent to you in the email. I know this works in Cpanel.
