FS#4125 - [dcron] Should cron depend on smtp-server?

Task Type Feature Request Category Packages: Current Status Closed Assigned To Aaron Griffin (phrakture) Architecture All Severity Low Priority Normal Reported Version 0.7.1 Noodle Due in Version Undecided Due Date Undecided Percent Complete Votes 0 Private No

Details I noticed that dcron wants to exec sendmail if a script generates output, so should cron depend on a package that provides sendmail, or should there rather be a prominent notice advising users to redirect or avoid output in cron scripts?
