account? How do I stop it?
You don't want to stop it. Some of it may be important system
messages, at also sends it's output by email. Check your local mail
occasionally.
Yes, Some of it may in fact be important system messages but I cant look
through an 800MB file to find them. I understand sending errors and stuff
but it sent one bigass message with the output from yes running for a minute!
Is there a way to make it only send important things?
