lelo25,

Try to write some messages or results of the job befor & after the actual job and redirect it to a log file.

0 9,12,16 * * * poc.sh >> /tmp/poc.log 'date +\%m\%d' 2>&1

the thing to do is write a script which performs the backup and logging and notification, then run that script from crontab. if you like, you can run it from a nfs so as to maintain a single copy.
