Right, that's pretty much what I am after - we use quite a few cron jobs for things like regular reports, log extracts, all kinds of stuff. Usually daily jobs, with output just sent to MAILTO.
The arch wiki page mentioned some utility that would parse a cron file and implement systemd-timers, including mail. Perhaps that's worth a look? (I haven't myself, sorry)
Dave, do you have a URL for that? I have the arch wiki page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/systemd/Timers There is a reference to systemd-cron https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/systemd-cron ( and somewhere I even found this: :-) https://github.com/dtan4/ct2stimer (no mention of MAILTO though). I have also just now seen that there is a "systemd-crontab-generator", that sounds like something to take a closer look at. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (18.4°C) Member, openSUSE Heroes (2016 - present) We're hiring - https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Heroes
