If you need to keep dated logs, so that you can later on do log
management, like backing up, deleting, comressing, whatever you wish, i
have my crontab item redirect output to a dated log, like so:
/usr/bin/gotmail4evolution 2 >> /home/kk/logs/$(date +\%A-\%m\%d\%Y).log
I like to know what they of the week it was for each day, but if you do
not wish that, delete the '\%A-' and you should be good with a boring
generic dated log.
