Best answer

In the file /etc/cron.d/sendmail there were only two lines that were not commented out.
open in root

Code:

#MAILTO=root
#*/20 *  *  *  *     smmsp   test -x /etc/init.d/sendmail && /usr/share/sendmail/sendmail cron-msp

Comment that both you will the message has been stopped sending to your mail.
