No email from Cron Jobs

[Andrew Bacchi]

It's odd that it happened on both servers at the same time.

You can check the log file for some clues to whether the mail was sent 
at the proper time.  /var/log/maillog

Issue the 'mailq' command to see if the que is empty.  If you get a list 
of waiting mail, restart sendmail and see if it's delivered.

The problem could be caused by either cron, or sendmail.

I don't know what the TTY log file is.
