Tom, that looks like exactly what I need, I'll try it. Doug, Scott,
Alvaro, John, I don't want to send the entire output
of my cron script to /dev/null, just the parts inside of my misc.sql
file (which cron calls) where I call my own functions,
eg SELECT * FROM myFunction();
Also. I will check out the MAILTO="" which will be helpful for some of
my other cron scripts. Thanks John.
