I have a Pi3B running an older version of Raspbian. Not going to upgrade because there's a lot of stuff I and others have written to take advantage of this particular OS version. It's in the cards at some point, but not now.
I'm using the cron MAILTO= variable to catch and send any errors that jobs generate to myself. However, the cron daemon is adding the user's name to the FROM: address. For example:
user@ address@ mydomain.com
Of course, the mail host is rejecting this primarily because it knows that's not a valid user for the mail relay. (It never gets to the "this is a bad address format" check.) This seems to be the only system service that's doing this. Of course, everything on this one is running System======D.
WTF is going on here? I've disabled cron's MAILTO parameter and just have jobs writing to a log, but I'd like to figure out why it's doing this.
