1) Could someone explain why periodic daily/weekly/monthly commands set in /etc/crontab will ignore settings:
MAILTO="emailoutside@somedomain.com"
or MAILTO=""
Other tasks are good to follow what crontab(5) says, but periodic will not and always send emails to the owner (i.e. root from "who" column).
2) What will be a correct wait to keep periodic tasks run but not reporting any results, not even generate emails to queues?
>/dev/null 2>&1 will not work for them as well.
