Mail is not sent by cron daemon

Hello All,

In SunOS 10, I have some cron jobs and it is running fine but the cron job outputs are not mailing to any acount of the system.

In other OS, we have option like MAILTO variable or /dev/null to disable but in Sun I have no idea how it is disabled by default and how do I enable.
Please help me.

Thank you.
