Cron & ssmtp timeouts

- Subject: Cron & ssmtp timeouts
Hello,
I have a few batch jobs that I would like to schedule using cron and have
the output e-mailed. For small jobs this works fine but for jobs that run
for a period of time no e-mail is being sent. Instead after snooping around
I found this error message in /var/log/cron.log:
/usr/sbin/ssmtp: connection lost in the middle of processing, exiting.
It is very difficult if not impossible to split the job in smaller parts so
each part could be launched in a seperate cron job.
Any ideas how to solve this ?
Gerrit.
