If you want cron to create an email only in case of an error, you can use the following snippet in `/etc/cron.daily/mailcow-backup` for example. If necessary the paths must be modified.
```
#!/bin/sh
# Backup mailcow data
# https://mailcow.github.io/mailcow-dockerized-docs/b_n_r_backup/
set -e

export MAILCOW_BACKUP_LOCATION="/opt/backup"

PARAMETERS="backup all"
OPTIONS="--delete-days 30"
# run command

RESULT=$?
if [ $RESULT -ne 0 ]
then
echo "${SCRIPT} ${PARAMETERS} ${OPTIONS} encounters an error:"
echo "RESULT=$RESULT"
echo "STDOUT / STDERR:"
cat "$OUT"
fi
