I just made a few improvements to it, but here is what ran last night:
local]# cat mycron
#!/bin/sh
# the sed commands only work if USER == MAILTO in crontab
exec 3>> /var/spool/mail/$USER
exec 100>/var/tmp/$USERlock.lock || exit 1
flock -w 120 100 || exit 1
currentDate=$(date +'%a %b %d %T %Y')
echo "From cron@localhost $currentDate" >&3
currentDate2=$(date +'%a, %e %b %Y %T %z (%Z)')
echo "Date: $currentDate2" >&3
echo "Message-ID: $(uuidgen)@$HOSTNAME" >&3
# (cat) >&3
(sed -e "/^From: / s/$USER/$USER@$HOSTNAME/"|sed -e "/^To: /
s/$USER/$USER@$HOSTNAME/") >&3
echo "" >&3
The flock stuff was added yesterday, and was not in the previous failures.
