how to disable Cron job mails for all accounts ?

[hossein]

Hi . i have a SPAM problem on port 25 .
so i see Mail Queue that is full of spam cronjob mails . how i can disable mail notification for all accounts on cpanel ?
i add "/dev/null 2>&1" in at the end of cronjob.

0 1 5 10 * /path/to/script.sh >/dev/null 2>&1

but it is for single account and i need to do it user by user .
i'm looking for a single command or a way to disable cronjob notification mails in 1 step for all cpanel accounts .


Thanks - Hossein .

Hey there! There isn't a way to do this globally on the system, as each cron can have unique email settings.

One user in a different thread made a script that added a blank MAILTO value to each user's cron file, outlined here:

My mail queue is almost frozen mails with over 7k to 10k All mails are related to cron notification i went to cP > Cron job and i can see the cron notification Email was updated with the cPanel username which is causing the issue How can i disable the cron notification on bulk for all accounts...
