Re: No email output - cfengine-2.1.14

[Dmitry Sazonov]

my cfexecd does send email. it's 2.1.14 from blastware.

0,30 * * * * /opt/csw/sbin/cfexecd -F

I had 2.1.13 from sunfreeware, it was not sending any email because it was 
dumping core.
check ~root for cores, check maillog (on smtpserver) for email attempts.
