Brug 'MAILTO' for at styre det lokalt i crontab:

Fra `man 5 crontab`:

--cut--
In addition to LOGNAME, HOME, and SHELL, cron(8) will look at MAILTO if
it has any reason to send mail as a result of running commands in
``this'' crontab. If MAILTO is defined (and non-empty), mail is sent to
the user so named. If MAILTO is defined but empty (MAILTO=""), no mail
will be sent. Otherwise mail is sent to the owner of the crontab.
--cut--

Iøvrigt er det vel altid en god idé at redirigere root's mail hen til
nogen, der læser den...
