Mailing the crontab output

By default cron saves the output in the user's mailbox (root in this case) on the local system. But you can also configure crontab to forward all output to a real email address by starting your crontab with the following line: 
MAILTO="yourname@yourdomain.com"

Mailing the crontab output of just one cronjob

If you'd rather receive only one cronjob's output in your mail, make sure this package is installed: 
aptitude install mailx
And change the cronjob like this: 
*/10 * * * * /bin/execute/this/script.sh 2>&1 | mail -s "Cronjob ouput" yourname@yourdomain.com

Trashing the crontab output

Now that's easy: 
*/10 * * * * /bin/execute/this/script.sh 2>&1 > /dev/null
Just pipe all the output to the null device, also known as the black hole. On Unix-like operating systems, /dev/null is a special file that discards all data written to it.
