A short time ago (maybe after a TL update) I noticed that cron jobs (run as root) now send email to root at the completion of each job. I am not sure how or why this started, but I want to stop it. Have not been able to find out why it is happening or how to "turn it off". Does anyone know how to stop these emails from happening?
 
You could redirect the output from the cron jobs to a file or /dev/null if you are not interested in it.
