I've been seeing these lines in my /var/log/cron.log file: 27-Jul-09 12:00 unable to exec /usr/lib/sendmail -t, user -oem, output to sink null27-Jul-09 12:09 failed user root parsing pr 2002; Thilo Bangert I don't know why it's trying to use sendmail; I use exim. The server is actually on the same box that's giving me this problem, but the other two boxes on the network use ssmtp forwarding to forward their mail to this box, and I get their cron reports. There's nothing in the exim logs about this.
