How to Stop a Cron Job or Email Notification

March 30, 2009 Posted by KP

From the log stats, I found many people were wondering how to stop a cron job or its email notification. To stop a cron job, just remove the command by editing the cron job:

# crontab -e

It will open your crob job file with your default editor. If you want to stop emails for all commands, simply remove the first email line. To stop email for certain command, append ‘> null’ to that command.
